Douglas DC-3 Take-Off - Radial Engine Sounds!

When I was a kid many years ago, I made my first unaccompanied flight in a DC3. I sat in a bulkhead seat. Back then, the “stewardess” would bring a tray of finger sandwiches to the passengers in the first row. Having never flown before, I did not know you were supposed to take one and pass the tray to the next row. We sat there and ate all but a few. When the stewardess realized the tray had not been passed back, she came up found out. We explained we didn’t know we were to pass the tray, she gave a big smile and didn’t throw us off/out! That was my first and only unaccompanied flight!

Soul. Can you get it with a Basler ?

Cool

Great tribute to my favorite plane.

WOOOOW!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

What a beautiful machine. Every DC-3 looks great but this one in particular is absolutely stunning.

You needed a camera person at the other end to capture the growling sounds of those engines.
So glad this one is flying and not stuck in some museum someplace.

I want this vintage style plane back as passanger service 😭

I wish I could fly in one for short haul flights. Why don't they make them anymore.

My faverate vintage passanger plane.

Hermoso y el sonido espectacular el mejor avión de todos los tiempos ❤😊🎉

I have always thought that the DC-3 was one of the most beautiful aircraft ever built.

I have always liked this plan since i was 11 year old boy Still love the sound and look of the plane She looks good

Love how the P&W powered DC-3 sounds like music, something I have loved about these since I was a child. The DC-3 is now 88 years old.

Ce dc3 etait construit sous l.influence d.un camion. C.est un camion volant. Deja lorsque pilote ouvre sa fenetre et met son bras gauche sur le bord tu crois un chauffeur de camion qui te regardes d.en haut..
Un avion mythique un plaisir de le voir et aussi de l.entendre passer..
Dommage ils ont arreté de le produire.. un jour ils vont revenir vers lui. Car ces nouveaux avions sont redevenu encombrant chére a entretenir..ils ont abandonné le concorde ensuite le 747 ensuite le reste quibva venir . Le dc3 va revenir ..le classique ne se démode jamais

See one landing every day on my way to work at OPF in Florida. It comes from Nassau Bahamas

Is the year of this Douglas dc-3 plane 1946?

Nothing like the happy chuckle of taxying P&Ws

I was insisde of dc3 in Netherlands planr museum

One of my faverate vintage classic passanger planes. Is it still used for passangers?

That DC-3 runs as smoothly as a Swiss watch. Thanks for sharing!

The aircraft from GTA San Andreas

One example of a machine built right the first. Many DC3s are still flying decades after they were first built. Really tough airplane

One of the best looking airframes ever designed and built, DC-3 / C-47.
Another one is B-17.
As a kid living on Cape Cod, MA in the 1970's, I got to fly to Boston one time, and part of the safety speech, the pilot said everytime that DC - 3 took off, it set another record, as it was the highest flight hour DC-3 in existence.
That was an Air New England plane. I wonder what happened to that plane now.
I hope it's still working and flying. What a great plane.

Very quiet even at their loudest. Are they so quiet even when the listener is on the ground? Best for night raids.

Beautiful.

Hello mate. Today 22 april, was in my garden and listening a Radial engine sound. So watch a DC3 flying above my house. I check immédiatly FR24 on my phone and it was this plane.
The flight was from GrenchenQYG to GironaGRO Spain. It was 11h50 and flying 2700m at 222kmh. Time of trip 3h15. This DC3 flies back to Bern 1 hour later but overfly the Sea towards Nîmes and Avignon for a 2h20 flight. After stopover in BernBelp, take off again to GrenchenQYG.
Are you aware about this flight ??🙋👍

ngl it sounds like my electric fan when i turn it up on number 5

Nice!😎

Simplemente fantástico!

Stunning footage. DC-3 one of my favorites 👍😎

nice catch........please upload video in blackwhite

For me an absolute "eye-candy" ~ love it !!!

Absolutely beautiful aircraft. The mosquito control district had several of these and I fondly remember them flying in formation at low altitude over our house when I was a kid.
Thanks for the awesome video👍

Fantastic!!!

Woah! That sound man…! Amazing capture! How happy I would be having this in my memory card! Superb clip man!!

That Is a beauty

For some reason, this is one of my favorite aircraft. Ijust love the classic look and the incredible sound. Well done, mate! Fantastic video!!

Incredible catch Matt!!

Wow , what an interesting looking aircraft.
I would love to take a ride on that .
Takes me back to those old war movies that had these types of aircraft's .
Good video Matt !
😊

Schönes Video mit sattem Sternmotor-Sound! Ich habe 1987 mit einer DC 3 der Classic Air (HB-ISC) von Friedrichshafen aus einen Bodensee-Rundflug gemacht, zeitweise „in Begleitung“ der HB-ISB. Ich vermute, dass es sich bei der gezeigten Swiss-DC3 um eben diese handelt. Schade, dass es keine regulären Gäste-Mitflüge mit Oldtimer-Flugzeugen mehr gibt.

My Mom and I flew on a Western airlines DC-3
From Sacramento to
Santa Monica and the
Stewardess was passing around a basket of gum calling
Out "Chicklets any one"
before takeoff to help
Pop our ears in an
unpressurized plane!!

Great video! And veteran plane mate😍

The airplane that did a lot to win WWII.

Gorgeous!

I remember standing in front of the old Mount Hope hanger looking up at the thing - ten feet off the ground if it was an inch (part of Austin Airways fleet servicing James and Hudsons Bay on winter maintenance), and the letters making up Trans-Canada Airlines barely peeking through.

Fantastic video! Really nice catch! I got to go inside a DC-3 not too long ago :)

Oh, what a gem ~ love it, thanks !

Klasse Fang und wie immer Super Video !! LIKE

Perhaps the greatest aircraft ever built. Developed in 1935 and is still in service in many parts of the world.

Awesome old plane!
