dayton airshow circa late 90's. i had no idea that corsair was the real deal.

i think every college needs a C-47 don't you? for special recruiting.

sorry for the sad quality. i'm sometimes better!

Oh yes, "Race 57" was the real deal. Originally operated
by Cook Cleland it raced in several Thompson Trophy races/
Rurchased, restotrf and flown by Bob Odegaard in the 90s,
it met an unfortunated end after being sold and operated by
others. Cook's "Race 74" survives.

Race 57 was sold and is still being operated by "others". It was Race 74 and Bob Odegaard that met a very unfortunate end. Here are both of them at Falcon Field airport in Mesa, Arizona a few years back.

According to the Ohio University website, the DC-3 is still in active use.
