Aviation Specials Magazine Dakota Edición anterior

The greatest aircraft of all time? Ask ten aviation enthusiasts to name just one, and you’ll probably get ten different answers. That said, all would doubtless agree that the Douglas DC-3, the redoubtable Dakota, would be a strong candidate.

Having made its aerial debut in 1935, a few hundred are still flying today, more than 85 years later. That’s breathtaking when you pause to consider the multitude of justly famous civil and military types that have come and gone in that time.

This reissued special publication offers not just original articles, but also fresh content and features from sister publication FlyPast. This includes a wider appreciation of the Dakota’s exploits throughout World War Two, personal reminiscences from pilot Jim Tilley, and coverage of existing UK warbirds. Grab yourself a drink, sit back and revel in the stories about this airborne legend.
