    The DC 3 remains the workhorse of many cargo operations in a country as difficult to fly in, as is Colombia. Magnificent bird. Love the grass to 15 ft wide “runway” to dirt and just barely over the trees... these guys have balls.

    I'm sure they get nothing like the money of pilots flying big jets, but what a job!
    You must feel like you are king of the world, cruising over such beautiful terrain (and low enough to actually see it), demonstrating your skill and just generally being super cool.
    Great video, thanks.

    This plane is so beautiful, looks like a Land Rover with wings, funtion over design

      You obviously mean Land cruiser right?

    • @TheHelado36
      @TheHelado36 8 років тому +2

      EggiTheShadow
      no, Land Rover, is a comparison because of the crude and simple engineering of both iconic vehicles !

    • @stropo100
      @stropo100 7 років тому

      Just to clarify things: The true "design" as a whole project , includes also the function as base for the perfect result, and the DC3 fits perfect in this category, reflecting both the aesthetics and techniques of is era

    • @EggiTheShadow
      @EggiTheShadow 7 років тому

      TheHelado36 Ah so that's what you mean. Sure they are both crude and simple, but function over design? Land rovers are the most unreliable car you can buy, whereas the dc3 is incredibly reliable which is why they are still operational and have still survived to this day

    • @TheHelado36
      @TheHelado36 7 років тому +1

      EggiTheShadow Well I really mean those vehicles that are overwhelmingly used in Africa (that year and design of Land Rover) and the Toyota Land Cruiser is also a very good vehicle! Analogies and comparisons exist not to be picky with them just to enjoy the language device !

    times, quite a difference. When I was there Leticia didn't have any paved streets.

    @DC3Dreams La descripcion lo dice, lleva una carga completa, seguramente va a peso maximo. Ahora, motores cansados? no me parece. Encendido normal, buena aceleracion (o sea, buena compresion), desde que suelta los frenos hasta que las ruedas dejan la tierra pasan menos de 30 seg., o sea que la pista es corta. Finalmente, despues que bajas los aceleradores a 35 pulgadas de presion ( o menos) para dejar descansar los motores, un ascenso a 105 nudos es bastante normal. Buen trabajo!
