Now, initially, when various parties suggested a medium-size Dakota, I don’t mind telling you I exercised my right to selective hearing because, to be honest, it wasn’t anywhere near the top of my wish list. However, RCM&E editor Graham Ashby wasn’t willing to be ignored... Mr. Ashby, it seems, is rather a fan of the DC-3 &, like it or not, I have to admit that its long & diverse history does lend it a certain cache
- for a commercial aircraft, that is. Although the aircraft has been in service for over 70 years (the prototype first flew on December 17 1935), the Douglas continues to operate in all corners of the world & has achieved an almost iconic status. It’s hardly surprising, then, that so many flyers want a model of the Dakota. On the prototype’s maiden flight, for instance, when it was still uncovered, with unfinished nacelles & a plant-pot stuck on its nose, the Dak’ was recognised with affection by the first modeller I met. “ Oh, a Dakota
- that’s nice. I remember jumping out of one in ‘44...” You get the picture. The upshot of all this is that Graham got his way, & his DC-3.
