In preparation for my Type Rating on the Douglas C-47, I'm doing a review with DC3 instructor specialist, Frank Moss. I brought my C-47 over from Britain back in 2012 and thought it time to complete my check rides and get the rating squared away. In this clip I get a refresher course from Frank, we go over the workings of the aircraft, review the procedures, and then go out and do some take-offs, landings and fly-bys. Come on along for the ride. | Kermit Weeks
