i saw the pic. looks like she had navy mods from the tail confuguration. she's in great shape too!!! i expected her to be a "little long in tooth." to anybody with the guts / deep pockets to go for her, beware........ in alot of instances these planes sit & languish because they have liens out the ying yang on them. look carefully & deeply!!! tom


Here's from the guy offering the bird at:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1944-DC- ... dZViewItem

"Upon sale it will have a free and clear title if paid in full on the bid."

But it looks like we'll have to wait for a relist as the auction closed at $41,500 and didn't meet his reserve price.

Is that the Super DC-3 you can see in the hangar at the end of the movie "Spartan" with Val Kilmer?

Yeah, we're just offering options here. If you can't get the original Phoenix bird for storage and court costs, the Texas one is an alternative but the price is rising fast.
