Berlin's resident DC-3 is seen here with "Rosinenbomber" and "Berliner Flughäfen" titles, sharing the unique Templehof covered parking area with fellow Dakotas SE-CFP, G-AMPY and LN-WND to celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the Berlin Airlift. D-CXXX was formerly G-AMPZ so it is certainly not the first time she has sat alongside Air Atlantique sister-ship G-AMPY!

Having for many years believed that this C-47 was MT-201 (for which the c/n is unknown), it is now clear from a photo in the 2021 book "DC-3/C-47 in Latin American Military Service" that it is actually MT-202 which has a known identity. It was broken up eight months later.

This 1942 R4D-1 spent her first four years with the USN then took up a corporate transport role with a series of different owners, ending up in South Africa from 1990. Arrived at Dunsfold 27 Jan 2006 and was intended to be going on to a new career in Iceland but held up with bureaucratic problems. It was eventually flown to New Zealand in late 2012, as N451ZS.

Starting out as 42-24081 and becoming an R4D-5 in 1943, c/n 9962 was modified to R4D-8 Super Dakota standard for the USN in 1952 (so gaining the new c/n) but was soon handed over to the USMC, although a period was spent back in the USN (Norfolk) around 1970. Lastly based at Beaufort MCAS, SC, she entered storage at DM four months before this shot and in 2.81 was registered N8502X, but ended up with Desert Airparts in 9.82

This crash pose was an attraction for the Fantasy of Flight collection, positioned right alongside the main I-4 highway in central Florida. At one point wrongly thought to be N4797H c/n 25623, it may perhaps be a composite using parts from other Daks. Note hapless airman hanging on under tail! Still at the same spot, but no longer in a nose-down position by 2018.
