Facts please folks!

The qiestion was "What is the oldest commercial aircraft still operation?"

Dates of entry to service therefore needed for, if I may suggest the shortlist;

G-ACDC, our wonderful Tiger moth (same age as my mum, to the month)

The Dragon Rapide

DC 2

Ford Trimotor (My guess for the prize)

Any Iron Annies ("Tante Ju") still at work.


Or any better ideas anyone has - not so long since Richard Bach was joyriding in a 1929 Park Special after all...is he the last?
