Book excerpt: The Douglas DC-3 Dakota revolutionized air transport in the 1930s and 1940s. Because of its lasting impact on the airline industry, and in particular the part it played in the World War II, the Dakota is widely regarded as one of the most significant transport aircraft ever built. Using the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight’s ZA947 as its centerpiece, this Haynes Manual describes the Dakota’s rugged anatomy and examines its operation from the viewpoints of its owners, aircrew, and engineers.
