lown as 41-38753, F-AZTE, F-BBBE and many other registrations. On March 5, 1943 she left the Douglas Aircraft Company in Long Beach, California, USA and thereafter she began her working life. On June 6, 1944, the famous D-Day Normandy landing, participated in military operations leading the US 82nd Airborne paratroopers Division, who jumped in the vicinity of Saint Mère-Église. During her mission she was shot several times by German gunfire, which is still visible today. In 1989 the plane was abandoned awaiting scrapping. Her current owner, the private foundation Dakota et Compagnie, brought her back to life, being reconditioned and flying the skies again. My repaint shows her in 2007 as she appeared at Hamburg, Germany. And yes, she has a two sided paint scheme since KLM and Air France merged. Thanks to Manfred Jahn for his great model!

There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.
