about this artwork

D-day, 1944. A Douglas C-47 of the 89th Troop Carrier Squadron navigates through the night sky, dropping it’s brave American paratroopers in Normandy. In the background a C-47 has been hit by flak fire, now managing the flight back home with a burning engine…

The Douglas C-47 Skytrain, or Dakota (RAF designation), is a military transport aircraft that was developed from the civilian Douglas DC-3 airliner. It was used extensively by the Allies during World War II. During the war the C-47 was used for troop transport, cargo, paratrooper drops, glider towing, and military cargo parachute drops. The C-47 remained in front-line service with various military operators for many years.
