Both Air Tasmania (Ansett colours) and MM Airlines paint were still on it when it was paint stripped a couple years back. It is now in green warbird colours..:)

Heavy Cargo, Whats happening with C47 VH-SPY still sitting at Cairns? Is it airworthy?

HC, did you manage to grab any photos of the stripping process. MMD at the museum still has MMA etched into the fuselage.

Another superb model cac.

The late Terry Burns(founder and CP of Airtasmania) would be suitably impressed.

When did they stop operating the DC-3?

cac_sabre 3rd Sep 2010 08:36

Thanks CLX, ceased operations in 1977 apparently

CAC-Sabre, once again a fantastic model.

Great to see some of the lesser known companies get a run on your production line!!!!

I have 1 DC-3 and 1 DC-3/C47 large scale model not made sitting idle in my shed at the moment if someone wants to buy them and get some different livery's applied.
