DC-3 (C-47) Dakota Tribute flight
Loading...
Uploaded by filanjix on May 26, 2008
Here is a video of a DC-3 (C-47) Dakota flight from Southend airport, in England, over the Thames Estuary and back to Southend.
This aircraft is G-AMPY, operated by Air Atlantique, and painted in the Royal Air Force Transport Command livery.
G-AMPY will soon stop flying for passengers, and i was lucky enough to get a seat on a flight in its farewell tour. Happily G-AMPY will still be performing at air displays.
I hope you enjoy my video of this fantastic aircraft. There is no music so you can enjoy the fantastic sounds of the engines.
Thanks for watching(please rate)!

Great video! I was on the same flight the day before, the 23rd! But I only had a camera so it's great to see actual film of it - thanks!

I had a chance last year during the International Air Picnic in Goorashka (Góraszka) in Poland (I'm from Poland ;) ), but I was there on Saturday and C-47 from RAF in painting of D-Day was during the second day of Air Picnic - on Sunday... :(
