LASER DC-3 crash in Colombia
As somebody mentioned the C46 there was a pax variant on sale with a well known broker from a South American Country who also had a DC3 for sale -although slightly biased being a Brit the cargo 748 was a good equivalent for a DC 3-----

I was in Colombia a few years ago and saw this particular airframe taking off from Puerto Carreņo (got a picture)
They barely cleared whatever trees was there at the end and carried on a staggering positive rate of climb... On two engines!
That seemed standard SOP.

. There may be a parallel with the 1996 Dutch Dakota Association DC3 accident in which there was an issue with the feathering pump solenoid and the crew didn't pull the button out to prevent the prop unfeathering itself.
