Where and when?
I’ve just stumbled on this wonderful propliner video. Where was it shot? Is anyone able to ID the participants, particularly the DC-2?

Germany some years back - the DC-6 is G-APSA which stopped flying perhaps 10 years ago, DC-2 is N39165 operated by the Dutch Dakota Association, Connie is HB-RSC and last I heard was grounded with some tech issues - hope they are resolved, would love to see her in the air again.
That's a rather ungentlemanly attitude for a Noratlas! |
Hamburg, perhaps. There was a propliner gathering on these lines there several years ago.

Hamburg Airport Day 2007 it seems. They have held them more recently but G-APSA's CofA expired in 2009.
Magic! |

Thanks Jels... fingers crossed that the German team can achieve what Lufthansa has to give up on with their Starliner project...
I've never seen the DC-2 or indeed any DC-2. What is the story with the Dutch Connie - assume there are no plans to get her back in the air? Always hoped she would be as regular a visitor to UK events as the DC-3s and DC-4 were. |
