Delivered to Penn Central on 24 October 1939. Wears "The Capital Fleet" titling beneath its cockpit windows - and the firm formally changed its name to Capital Airlines in April 1948 to match its main base at Washington's DCA airport. From Douglas 60 years ago.

Two great American classics, the DC-3 and the Piper Cub. The DC-3's name is rather ironic because she was camping in the open here at this time. Ex 9Q-CUK.
