Malaga DC3 'Iberia'

[Batchy]

I made a lightning visit to Malaga Airport last week, but had just enough time to wizz through the airfields small air transport museum. The highlight of which was this DC3 (C47B). At the present time I don't know much about the airframe other than the fact it carries the false markings of EC-ABC which was the first DC3 to be operated by Iberia Airlines.

And especially for all those airfield support vehicle anoraks: a modified Renault 4, (First ever Duxford visit was made in saloon version hence rose tinted fondness for one of the quirkiest cars ever manufactured).

Batchy.

I remember visiting Palma de Mallorca (PMI) in 1980 and those modified Renault 4s were in widespread use as the follow-me/marshallers' cars at the time.
