Aircraft preservation : Hangar Flying : Restauration of the C-47 Dakota in Melsbroek

A great achievement when comparing with the state of this aircraft when recovered.
Restoring such an aircraft in a so short period of time is a real tour de force covered by an excellent article of our friends of Hangar Flying 

Good show !

I saw that you have a Schempp-Hirth sailplane that I watched on its first test flight in 1964. I recently scanned my old slides of that wonderful day at the Hahnweide and posted them to my Facebook page. Perhaps you will enjoy seeing your OO-ZTL when it was brand new!
