    Thumbs up for Everts Air Cargo and Everts Air Fuel for still flying these old beauties. Finally some Props flying on this Channel! That was a rewarding visit, thank you guys! And by the way... that "DC-3" was actually a Basler BT-67, a re-engined, modernized Version of the old DC-3/C-47-Machines. That partcular Aircraft even had the Wings of a "Super DC-3" or C-117.

    It is good to see DC6 planes still flying. My mum+ and I flew to France on a DC6 in 1959 and both parents+ and I flew back to the US from France on a DC6 in 1961. My dad+ was in the American military, and his last duty station was in France. Good memories.

    I've never seen either one of these planes before. Can you imagine how noisy that DC6 must be? With the quad props? They were neat looking planes, though. I'm sure my dad would recognize them right away. I even think he's flown on DC3's before. Pretty wild, Kev!

      @@javaman4584 really? I'm sorry to say that, even though I'm in my mid 50s, I don't remember those airplanes at all. The only time I've ever seen them, before now, was in an old, classic movie. I figured they were as noisy as all the other prop planes I've flown, and I've flown a few! The worst plane I ever flew on was a little 19 seater Beech 1900. I kept expecting the pilots to go out and wind the engines up like they used to. It was singularly one of the most horrifying flights of my life! I've also flown a Shorts 360(awful!) and a Dash 8. They were all so noisy I got a headache. I finally solved that issue by using earplugs! Now, of course, were all jet engines. I will confess they're rather loud on takeoff, but afterward, they're so quiet you can barely hear them. Though I've flown 2 of the worst jets EVER, it, a DC9 and a Fokker 100. Awful, awful planes. The RJ900's I fly up and down the coast are more comfortable than those planes. And thank GOD Delta has done away with the RJ200s. They're pretty horrible, too! The RJ 700s and 900s, on the other hand, are quite comfortable!

    Guys... those planes have the peculiar lack of pressurization of current jets, so with good maintenance they can easily last 100 years working excellently 😎👍🏼 they are practically slow dinosaurs but, they are very safe and they were certainly made to last✈️✈️✈️ 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼😎👍🏼
