Kagoshima houses former Japan Air Systems' oldest daughter Japan Air Commuter, operating as a JAL feeder nowadays. Early this century, the sober colours of JAC were augmented by the small blue bird dressed in red, representing the company nearly everywhere at the time. [Nikon F100, 1.4x 300/4.0, Sensia 100]

You don't see too many ski-equipped C-47's. Triple Seven Yankee Alpha had been stored for quite some time at Palmer and had seen several changes of ownership but kept the 'Woods Air Service' titles. Its career took off again in 2007 and ended with Bush Air Cargo in 2015 due to a landing accident, still in the same colours.
