The Portuguese 19503 C-47A-80-DL CS-DGA is still parked at TAP headquarters (Lisbon Airport) with a funk registration CS-TDA. I am sending you some photos of It!
The other Dakota CS-AZL C-47B-10-DK 14799/26244 is still in Italy (Umbria)!
The last one remaining from the Portuguese Air Force C-47A 19755 reg: 6157, is still in Sintra, an Air Force Base 20miles from Lisbon.
In Portugal there are three preserved Dakotas actually!
One staying on the Air Force Museum in Sintra (6157) , another one on
the TAP Air Portugal headquarters (CS-DGA with a false registration
CS-TDA) and another one in Italy up for sale (CS-AZL)!
