Photographer's remark

The rain pours as this DC-3 rolls down the runway at RAF Finningley in April 1938...
Well... OK, that isn't quite true. I was lucky enough to be able to take a flight on this beautiful old aircraft on her 'farewell' tour and retirement from passenger service. The weather was absolutely terrible on this day, but if anything it helped evoke the atmosphere of what flying must have like over 70 years ago when the DC-3 was introduced. In over 250 flights this was easily one of the ones I'll never forget.
