Very nice to see this old classic at close quarters. (Canon 40D 55mm)

Reminding me of Southend in the 60's, the MAC Dak fires up for the short hop back to Holland after loading its pax at the end of Flying Legends 07

DDA's second DC-3 making a low pass over runway 32 (now closed), at the end of its delivery flight from Malta, in the company of ill-fated sistership PH-DDA. It would not fly again for 12 years due to a very thorough restoration. When it did, on 7 May 1999, the Pyramid Airlines colours in this photo (ex SU-BFY) had been replaced by retro Martin's Air Charter colours. It was withdrawn from use in October 2012, and initially stored at Amsterdam-Schiphol. In September 2016 it was dismantled and transported by barge to the Aviodrome Museum at Lelystad.

Like the bears in the zoo this warm winter, Doornroosje (Sleeping Beauty) isn't hibernating. She's wagging her tail and pressing her nose against the hangar door, wanting to get out and fly.
