For a number of years this C-47 is preserved near the border between Slovenia and Croatia close to the village of Otok. It serves as a monument to a provisional airfield called Piccadilly Hope which was used by the allied forces during World War II in order to supply the Partisans led by Josip Broz Tito in their fight against Nazi Germany. The aircraft was delivered as KG783 to the Royal Air Force in August 1944 and also flew for the French Air Force before ending up with the Yugoslav Air Force somewhere around 1971.

For a number of years this C-47 is preserved near the border between Slovenia and Croatia close to the village of Otok. It serves as a monument to a provisional airfield called Piccadilly Hope which was used by the allied forces during World War II in order to supply the Partisans led by Josip Broz Tito in their fight against Nazi Germany. The aircraft was delivered as KG783 to the Royal Air Force in August 1944 and also flew for the French Air Force before ending up with the Yugoslav Air Force somewhere around 1971.
