Airplane Admiration
Last night I saw this glorious DC-3 parked out at the airport. It flies out of Alaska. I have always had a thing for DC-3s, because these planes represent all of the romance and emotion of early aviation. The sound of those engines!
I know I am not alone in loving these things. Barnes&Noble has a whole bunch of retro Pan Am paraphernalia for sale. There must be a lot of people who would love taking the Pan Am Clipper to Cathay.
There are some way cool DC-3 tourist rides offered around the globe. One web site advertised DC-3 African safaris. Now if that doesn't get a daydream started, I don't know what does.
