The DC-3/C-47/R4D/Dakota has touched the lives of people from every country in the World, -- and the DC-3 is still at it! A new group of DC-3 fans are now retracing the path of history, and share a "Spirit of Aviation" that has crossed both generational and financial barriers to capture the heart of those that love aviation as a way of life, and not simply a occupation!

We have just heard from Heartland Air Museum
We are looking for a left hand seat side beam.
This is the structure the folding seats are attached to.
Also we are needing the corrugated flooring sections.
