Must have been great to see - some excellent photos. Does anyone know who owns/operates the aircraft - I suppose it's more correct to call it a C 47 in that guise?

It is N147DC, a C-47A belonging to ACES HIGH. It passed overhead here in Westbury on Thursday afternoon at 2000ft heading to the southwest. Nice to see.

Tongue firmly in your cheek B-N!

Every time I think the Mail can't get any worse - it does.
