The aircraft has acquired its previous USAF serial on the fin, 268823. It carries unusual Royal Norwegian AF / RAF No. 20 Transport Squadron markings, only briefly carried in Norway between June 1945 and Feb 1946. This Squadron, unrelated to the RAF's 20 Squadron, was a continuation of the Luftwaffe's 20 Transportfliegergeschwader. Formally controlled by the RAF, this was the first step in re-establishing civil aviation in Norway post-war, using several DC-3s and Lockheed L-18 Lodestars. In 1946 the DC-3s were transferred to DNL, Norway's main pre-war airline, one of the predecessors of SAS.

Ex EC-FIN, still in full ARM colours.

On April 14, 2012 the aircraft was delivered to the Pacific Aviation Museum as N99131.

Ex USAF 43-49532.

This former C-47A served with the USAAF as 42-23385 and was converted to DC-3C (cargo door replaced by pax door & Viewmaster windows fitted) in the early 1960s. Registered in 2004 to Hans Lauridsen, the owner of the Lauridsen Aviation Museum (also located at Buckeye).

Wright-powered DC-3, operated by Florida Airmotive.

This is the first aircraft that one encounters after entering the wonderful museum at Datangshan. SKOGA (Soviet-Chinese Civil Aviation Company) was set up by the Soviet and Chinese governments in 1950 operating services from Beijing, eventually being superseded by CAAC in 1955. Note the cyrillic titles under the starboard wing, the port wing has Chinese characters.

Named "Scarlett O'Hara", this early production C-53 Skytrooper takes off from an improvised desert airstrip. 26470 later served with the USAAF's India-China Wing of Air Transport Command. From Douglas 60 years ago.
