I haven't heard the drone of a DC3 or C47 passing overhead since the arrival of the jet age, but I be I would recognize that familiar sound if I heard it today. When I was a boy, the familiar sound of a DC3, the whistle of a P39 Bell Airacobra, the familiar sound of a Grumman Avenger passing overhead imprinted a permanent memory into my young gray matter. The DC-3 was one of the aircraft heroes of WWII, and I felt moved to put together the above graphic in memory of an airplane which is still in use around the world.
