AirVenture 2010 will be the location to be for DC-3/C-47 fans. An organization called The Last Time, has organized a mass flight of Douglas DC-3/C-47 aircraft to celebrate the types 75th anniversary. They have made room for up to 40 aircraft to join the flight. There initial target was 25 but allowances must be made for circumstances beyond the control of the organizers and so an additional 15 slots were opened up to allow for the inevitable reduction of attendance that happens when your dealing with such venerable aircraft.
