DC-3, the former C-47A-60 DL 43-30709 (and US Navy
R4D-5
BuAer 39091). Under the wing is another C-47 awaiiting
conversion. This shot was taken
at
Washington National Airport, the base established when the airline went
to passenger services in
1949. N91221 was later re-registered N141A, but
by that time the airline had been renamed
Allegheny. This DC-3
is currently under restoration as a static exhibit at the Wings of
