Civilian Aviation

I have completed scanning all my collection of slide pictures taken over many, many years.
I am gradually uploading some to FlickR. My latest album is now titled Douglas DC-3 Dakota C-47 Skytrain.
Here are a few examples., which might tempt you to look further, maybe see an old favourite.
Good luck, and hopefully enjoy.

Pete.

Five "Daks" from me from earlier this year.

At Old Warden in late May...

And then at Duxford later the following week - I had only expected to see one that day, so was quite surprised to find five of them lined up when I arrived (their arrival did unfortunately mean that the Danish T-17s that had been visiting needed to be gone before the museum opened )...
