Feeling thankful on this Incredible Clear sunny day being able to get the D-Day Doll, (Piloted by Stephen Rose) Virginia Ann and the AT-6G video coverage that took a Heritage flight around various airports conducting formation fly-overs...and later returning to Flabob Airport.

The Douglas C-53D Skytrooper N45366 is a conversion of the DC-3/C-47 and flew Airborne paratroopers in WWII to various areas in the 1939-1945 Battle to Normandy in France.
The Battle of Normandy “Operation Overlord” lasted from June 6th 1944 to August 1944.
The D-Day Doll to this day…flys and has flown at events around the country for flyovers and for dropping various paratrooper teams at air shows.
Virginia Ann is a Douglas C-47A Skytrain USAF N62CC 330647 - X5

Great video, brings back memories of taking my Lodestar in there.
Great video of a wonderful girl. Thanks and happy flying
Those were the best days.
This video has made me recall my infancy... when I really enjoy hearing such amazing sound!
👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
Fire Ex's are SOP for ALL war birds with radials and most big engines of that time. It's pretty easy to lose control of a cylinder with those horse power ratings. VERY NICE VID. I started my flying career in 1972 in a '47 J3 when Flaybob, owned by Flavio Madriaga (( forgive my spelling please )) was the first EAA site in America at one time. Scorpion Helicopters and Stitts was there along with Art Scholl at the end of the hangers. I was standing just outside the restaurant when they filmed Robert Redford in the old time Barnstormers movie. I remember moving all the current model planes to the far end of the field and replaced them with biplanes and old cars. It was the coolest thing I'd ever seen and I was only 16 years old. I grew up on that field and flew out twice a month.
Gran video gracias por mostrarlo. Saludos de Argentina
FlaBob? Looks like it. I think I was there. 2018. 99% sure.

Yes! 2018.
It's great to see these c47s going i remember when they came too Prestwick in Scotland went to see them
Amazing sound , from an amazing aircraft . I do wish personnel nearby would wear hi-vis plus ear defenders . I would be so much easier for the flightcrew to spot him and so much safer .
Engine Sound: Pratt & Whitney R-2000
Looks like starting a DC 3 is kind of dicey one has to keep a fire extinguisher on the ground all the times?
Engine Sound: Wright R-1820
