“Together We Fly: "Voices
from
the DC-3″ -- is the story of an aircraft like none other — a true legend, the icon of an industry, and one of the most recognized aircraft in history, according to company officials. Today, crowds still gather to watch a DC-3 land, technicians revel in the sound of her rumbling radial engines, cargo haulers appreciate her ability to stretch to meet impossible demands, and pilots still dream of flying the greatest airplane ever built.
Author Julie Boatman Filucci recounts fascinating stories, introducing the reader to the people that helped make the DC-3 seem larger than life and greater than the sum of its parts. From the DC-3’s early development, through its many historic roles, and into the present, Voices is a human journey of visionaries, engineers, pilots, mechanics, hostesses, and passengers alike.

The World's
First Certified DC-3 Simulator!
The MPS DC-3
simulator has recently been certified as an
FNPT-II (equivalent to FAA level 5) by the
Dutch CAA. In addition, MPS was granted
operator status. It is now possible for DC-3
pilots to strengthen their knowledge and
skills by flying the DC-3 simulator. Amongst
others it is a great opportunity to cover
starts, landings, engine failures directly
after rotation, propeller feathering, IFR
procedures and cockpit re-familiarization.
You can

"QUOTE"
- We
came from all over the country.
We would only be together for a few hours.
One of the highlights of my DC-3 weekend in Rock Falls was
getting to play guitar under the wing of a DC-3 with my friend
Trev Morson, owner of the worlds biggest DC-3 web site.
Trev "THANK YOU" for your fantastic support of
the DC-3 through the years.

Axel Ebermann - Is a documentary filmmaker
and he spent the last four years travelling the worldwith the Dutch Dakota aficionado Hans Wiesman (pictured
above). Hans, scours the world for derelict DC-3 parts that he
donates to museums or turns into DC-3 designer furniture. Axel says, "And what a journey it was: Hans talked
Malagasy air force commanders into selling him their
‘Dakota’ scrap yards,argued with Thai officials why they should remove wingtips for
him before they sink the planes to build artificial reefsand lit up with joy when he found the rare forgotten storage
room full of Dakota parts in the jungle of Colombia".
The result of these adventures is the feature documentary ‘The
Dakota Hunter’.

Morson says: "I have watched the documentary myself and
