Partial cross post from The Circle Game thread.

These were taken on a Buffalo Airways hangar tour in Yellowknife. Enjoy!

DC-3 details:

Cool (literally) shots! It's amazing that a pre-WW2 design aircraft is still providing service in such a harsh climate.

A classic indeed. Modern avionics boxes just don't 'look right' on that panel.

Nice circle theme - even has 'round engines'.


Sparks memories: My first DC-3 ride was a night flight from St Louis to Detroit in 1948. The last was in a US Navy R-3D from San Diego to Oakland, CA en route to carrier quals in '68.

I have a few more shots from this tour that I'll be adding, but I like the DC-3 shots the best.

Cool! I think I've been inside one, but I've never flown in one. My Dad flew in one to Papua New Guinea in the 60's.
