Your cart is empty.The DC-3, the most famous of all transport aeroplanes has become known in nearly every part of the world as DAKOTA. It has been used by pratically every nation from America to the Soviet Union, by both China and all of the allies during World War II. After World War II it was used in the Berlin airlift, in Korea, during the Israeli-Arab conflicts, and finally became famous in its offensive role in Vietnam as the AC-47 GUNSHIP. The principal military version of the DC-3 was the C-47 SKYTRAIN. The C-47 could be fitted either as a trooper, with folding benches or as a heavy freighter.

I'm in the middle of this build right now and I'm here to say, for a guy who doesn't build a lot of wingy things, I like this kit. Also, for an Italeri kit, the fit and finish is what I'd expect from Tamiya. The fuselage halves went together without a noticeable gap and without having to use a bunch of rubber bands to hold it from stem to stern. The same with the wings when; no gaps in the halves or when they attached to the fuselage. If the rest of the build goes as well as the first part, this is going to turn into a great model.This C-47 is going to be a memorial build of sorts. I had a cousin who flew one of these for the 2nd Combat Cargo Squadron in the CBI during WW2. Unfortunately, he was killed in a crash one morning shortly after take-off from his airfield in India. Since I've got the accident reports from that day that include the aircraft number of his plane, I'm going to try to build this plane as his.
