    Today was a good aircraft day.

    Dropped the dog off to be clipped , hear the familiar drone of a two radial motors and lookup .......The (ANA)Ansett DC3 flying over . #KANANA.

    A unique aircraft being a one owner since new , till recent years when purchased by The Little Group.

    As i said a good aircraft day..

    It was, the factory is in the flighpath to Essendon Fields, the old girl flew over about 700' at 2:30pm, just happened to be outside. There's something about a polished fuselage and radial engines.

    About 17 years ago a friend who was head of Ansett engineering offered her to various people for around 150k on behalf of the liquidators .

    The idea had merit except for the fuel bill ,I cannot remember what hours the air-frame had left ?

    Would have been fun to get a fuel sponsor and do air-shows..

    Gunna day .:eek:
