I would polish that old lady just for a chance to fly it for an hour.
Great shot!

I am sure they would take you up on that - seriously.

I did a polished aluminum Cessna 195 once...for $50 dollars. That will go down as the single worst business deal I ever made in my life. I am not sure $500 would be enough for a C-195, let alone a DC-3. Bottom of the wing was the part - my arms are still sore and that was 22 years ago!

Love this picture - a classy old dame, and a fire-breathing Cougar in the same shot. I would love either one.

The American Flagship has been to BNA a few times... It is pretty amazing up close and personal.

I understand the cost savings but how can you take her radials and give her turbo-props?
