The image showcases a magnificent Douglas DC3 Dakota aircraft operated by Air Atlantique, standing proudly on the tarmac. This legendary aircraft has played a significant role in aviation history and continues to captivate enthusiasts with its timeless charm. What makes this moment even more extraordinary is that airport director Jim Denyer had the privilege of flying this iconic plane to commemorate his remarkable 30-year journey at the airport. As an experienced pilot, Mr. Denyer's connection with the DC3 dates back to his service during World War II and even during the historic Berlin Airlift.
