SkymonkeyONE 4 #9 June 7, 2005 Not the last time I saw it. Just another loud-ass DC-3. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
upndownshop 0 #10 June 7, 2005 I tagged it "Super" only do to the fact that it has bigger engines than the original, capabable of a 30 minute or less ride to altitude (compared to the normal 45). Dont have the technical details.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deuce 1 #11 June 7, 2005 Huh. They're pretty cool planes, and I guess I'm spoiled from jumping out of the SDA one so many times. I always get some oil on my lenses doing the cross-country thing out of that bird. The coolest one ever was at Perris's Memorial Day boogie, I guess it was three years ago. Turbine with 5 blade props. Super fast, quiet, and comfortable with just a mat floor. I'd like to jump that one again sometime. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
