CF-CRY Douglas
DC-3CS1C3G (c/n 20592)
At the gate at Vancouver, late 1950s. The CPAL DC-3s
have been white topped by now.
CF-CRY
was a fairly late model (as DC-3s go) being first delivered as
C-47A-90-DK
43-16126
in 1944. It was civilianized for CPAL in 1946. In the 1950s
it was sold to the
Portuguese colonial airline DTA in Angola as CR-LCY, and was
re-registered D2-LCY
when
that African nation gained independence. The DC-3 was withdrawn
from use in
Luanda in
1975.
