American Airlines Douglas DC-3 DVD preview

http://www.henrytenby.com/dvds/AmericanDC3dvd.html
On September 14, 2007, the Flagship Detroit Foundation's lovingly restored American Airlines DC-3 NC17334 made a first- time visit to Vancouver International Airport as part of an America Airlines sponsored tour of their west coast stations.

NC17334 was delivered new to American Airlines in March, 1937. In 1947, it was sold to the Bank of Mexico, and a string of owners followed until it was restored by the Foundation in 2005. With 45,000 hours to her credit, NC17334 will fly for many more years!

This pristine DC-3 operated two pleasure flights up the scenic BC coast via Howe Sound, which culminated in a flypast over North Vancouver, the city center, and the airport.

Airline videographer Henry Tenby captured this amazing visit on video, and this DVD presents spectacular footage from the flight-deck, cabin and exterior. We're in the cockpit for both landing and take-off, and the exterior views of the engines sputtering to life as well as views of taxi, take-off and landing make this a must-have DVD for hard-core propliner fans!

This 60 minute DVD is now available for purchase from www.airlinehobby.com DVDs. Enjoy the DVD preview.

Had a buddy that bought a beat-up old DC-3 with plans to make it into a flying recreational vehicle. He'd take his tools to it almost every weekend and work. When he passed away his wife asked me to do something with it. Went to it and found he had it plugged in at a hangar. It had a TV with an antenna, VHS, refrigerator, and a nice recliner. I added a DVD and satellite. I still 'work' on it most weekends. Gets me away from the ol' lady. Love that plane.

I just flew on a Saab prop jet for a local flight from Detroit to Wisconsin. This DC-3 was not any noisier than the Saab.
