DC-3 on Floats Part 1 of 2

DC-3 on floats. This video has some old footage taken from the EDO history reel which I transferred to tape in the 1980s. I made a VHS copy of the footage and gave it to J. Frey, then President of EDO. Jay found the tape and sent it to me to use for this YouTube video.
Bob Murray shot DC-3 footage on DV tape at the Greenville Seaplane Fly-in, somewhere around the late 1980s. This is part 1 of 2.

Great vid!!! Are there any DC-3 Amphib's still flying or undergoing the process to restore them to flying status. I love Amphib's. so far the only amphib I've been on is a C-208 Caravan in Scotland travelling around the Loch's

I wanna see a 747 on floats.! The DC-3 is the best plane ever made!

None today. This aircraft in particular was the last one I believe, (N130Q). Its still around (not sure if its airworthy), but it's been converted back to conventional gear.

Of all the DC-3's still flying in the world today i wonder how many of them are amphibious ?
