General Eisenhower once referred to the Douglas DC3 and its military version, the C-47 Skytrain (known as Dakota in RAF service), as one of the four tools that enabled the Allies' victory in the Second World War. This aircraft has since become a lasting emblem of both aviation and the liberation efforts during the war. The DC3/C-47 continues to operate today, both in updated and original forms, and is celebrated as a trailblazer in air travel.
