When I acquired the DC-3 C-FDTD in April 2017 and transferred it to Avialogs a few months later, my goal was first to preserve an historical aircraft, menaced at the time to be scrapped. The aircraft history was almost unknown to the majority and thousands of people saw this aircraft rotting away near Saint-Hubert Airport without knowing her past. From the D-DAY to Market-Garden, from Cairo, Karachi to Montreal, it was not for me only to preserve a piece of metal but also the memory of all who flew aboad. More than an airplane, she is a witness to history.
