barit1, help me out here if you can.

My DC-3 was converted by company that is not in business any longer, at least not that I am aware of. It was converted in 1946 and in the paperwork that came with aircraft it was released from the USAAF because it was 'war weary', with less than 500 TT. Which I found amusing.

Anyway, I cannot for the life of me remember the name of the company, except I want to say that one of the names of the company was something like Warner.

The first civilian owner was the Wriggly Company, of the chewing gum fame.

Does that ring any bells?

Thanks.

C-P
