About Douglas DC-3 Dakota Manual
Product Description New in Paperback. The Douglas DC-3 Dakota revolutionized air transport in the 1930s and 1940s. Because of its lasting impact on the airline industry - and in particular the part it played in the Second World War - the ‘Dak’ is widely regarded as one of the most significant transport aircraft ever built. Using the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight’s ZA947 as its centerpiece, Douglas DC-3 Dakota Manual describes the Dakota’s rugged anatomy and examines its operation from the viewpoints of its owners, aircrew and engineers. About the Author Paul Blackah joined the RAF in 1976 and trained as an airframe fitter. In 1993 he was posted to the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight. His specialized knowledge of vintage aircraft is considered crucial to the maintenance of the aircraft in the flight. In the 1990s, Paul was closely involved in the restoration-to-flight of the Messerschmitt Bf109F 'Black 6'. He lives in Lincolnshire, England. Louise Blackah is also an aircraft enthusiast and has worked with Paul Blackah on his other books.
