First Canadian built Delta. Remained in service until 1944. This photo was taken three days after its first flight which was from the Fairchild-owned seaplane base at Boucherville on the St Lawrence River that Canadian Vickers also used. Both had their factories at nearby Longueuil airfield. Flight testing continued from this facility until taken on charge by the RCAF in September. Photo from: Library and Archives Canada

This was the first DC-3 to be built after seven DST Douglas Sleeper Transports for American. Seen a day after handover to the airline. Note the fitment of a right hand door. It served AA until sale in January 1948. It later became PP-SQH with VASP and PP-ANU with VARIG. It is preserved at Porto Alegre as "PP-VRG". From Douglas 60 years ago.
