Dinard 1972

Post by JezM » Sat Nov 30, 2024 6:18 pm

I have recently been given a number of images that belonged to someone who has had to go into care, I don't claim the images to be mine but they reside in my collection & I thought it would be good to share them with a wider audience. I have asked mods for guidance on posting them but have had no reply to my PM. If the post goes against forum rules please remove.

A number of DC-3's were stored at Dinard in Brittany, sadly I can only identify three from notes on the slides.

I used a 'contact administrator' link I found somewhere on the site.

I'm pleased that I'm able to post as it's a bit sad to just let them languish in a box unseen - I'll post a few a few more as I get time to scan them.

Interesting shots to see.
Digging in Air Britain News - it turns out that Rousseau Aviation at Dinard purchased at least 24 DC3 from the French AF.
Registered in the F-BTDx, F-WTDx range and some unmarked.
Lets see some more.

(I visited Dinard once in November 1995. Loads of F-27 variants. Special interest was DC3 F-GIDK, F-GNFD and two DHC-5 SU-BFE and 5V-MAH.
Would love to see pictures of them if any in the collection.)
