My grandfather was a World War II veteran. He flew the P-47 Thunderbolt in the Italian liberation campaign, for the F.E.B (Brazilian Expeditionary Force) Seeing this beautiful plane in the video, flying at that time, I remember the stories he told me. One of them that caught my attention was when he flew over a region of Italy in 1945, almost at the end of the war. When suddenly he received the radio message transmitted by the Americans: ''Attention all units, do not attack, I repeat: do not attack. THE WAR IS OVER! Return to your bases immediately'' He said that when he heard this on his plane, he cried like a child and wanted to turn that plane around right away and leave straight for Brazil.
A beautiful plane, wonderfully restored. I have always loved DC-3s.
Helt underbart filmat Björn, kanon! Tack för det! 🙂
