  6. First flying on 23 February 1932, the Gloster TC.33 was designed to carry 30 troops and their equipment 1,200 miles. Evaluation demonstrated that the take-off performance was poor, even in cool English conditions. It was decided that this would be unacceptable in the areas of the British Empire it would be operating in that were often hot. destinationsjourney.com/histor #aviation #GlosterTC33 #RAF #RoyalAirForce #TroopTransport #aeroplane #airplane #aircraft #transportplane #cargoplane

  9. DC-3 Eastern Airlines, New England Air Museum, Connecticut Eastern Airlines bore the title 'The Great Silver Fleet' on their airliners for some years. They were also a significant user of Douglas's masterpiece, the DC-3. Here we see a fine example in the New England Air Museum in Connecticut. This aircraft was built as a DC-3, but taken over by the USAAF on the production line, and issued as a C-49J. From 1942 to April 1945 it undertook the many duties of a wartime transport, until converted back to a DC-3 and purchased by Eastern Airlines. #Connecticut, #C49 #Douglas #EasternAirlines #NEAM #NewEnglandAirMuseum #NewEngland #aviation #history #photography #aviationphotography #TheGreatSilverFleet #WW2 #USAAF #airliners #trooptransport #aviationlovers #avgeek #aviationgeek #airline
