    This company does amazing flight operations all over the world and we should be proud to call them a Canadian Aviation Operator.
    They've saved many lives with their unique aircraft and piloting skills.
    Thanks for the sights and sounds Alex! ❤

    If an airplane could ever feel proud of itself it would be this bird.

    On its way to Antarctica right now. Hope it's got comfortable seats.

      The seats in the DC-3 are probably more comfortable than the seats found in modern jets with their horribly tight seat pitch and rock hard seat cushions.

    Amazing aircraft design was already so sophisticated in the 1930s.

    I flew on that plane in the early eighties in the Canadian Arctic when it was still a piston drive DC3.

    I fly out of YYC often and one day when I saw one of those DC3s. As a aircraft enthusiasts that made my day seeing a DC3 in person

    Interesting over wing exhaust setup, not typical for PT6A engines. Basler site states it lowers infra ray signature. Always good videos that you create.

    It is funny to have the 737 beside the DC3 look like a giant.

    We have a couple of these at Oshawa (CYOO) heading out to Antarctica soon. They operate under ALCI and White Desert. C-GOOU has a beautiful white, red and blue livery. Beautiful airplanes to fly.

    In Australia, one of the early model DC planes, had the Nickname "Goony-bird".
    I am pretty sure it was a DC 3, but I may be wrong ! 😄
    Lovely to see this old gal still flying !🧡

    This is why I love this channel. I didn't even know there was a Gooney Bird with turbos, let alone ever see one. Amazing stuff, as always, Alex.

    • @HweolRidda
      @HweolRidda 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I thought the opposite. I can get over the different look to the engines but the sound is wrong to me compared to the radials. Maybe I don't remember correctly? It is more than 30 years since I was last in a DC3.
