I used to be an optimist but with age I am now a grumpy old pessimist.

They better get a move on, as there will be nowhere for it to go shortly. Coventry airport has been earmarked to be turned into a giant battery factory.

Maybe it'll be an electric powered DC3 then. A 3vDC.

Re: D Day Dakota being restored at Coventry.
This will be great news. You can’t have too many DC3s. I’m sure this project was featured in a tv prog around a couple of years ago when they were hoping to have it ready for the 75th anniversary of D Day. EricT
Now at the age where I know I like girls but can't remember why!
