The Douglas DC-3 is a propeller-driven airliner which had a
lasting effect on the airline industry in the 1930-1940's and
World War II. It was developed as a larger, improved 14-bed
sleeper version of the Douglas DC-2.
It is a low-wing metal monoplane with a tail wheel landing
gear, powered by two 1,200 hp (890 kW) Pratt & Whitney Twin
Wasp radial piston engines. It has a cruise speed of 207 mph
(333 km/h), capacity of 21 to 32 passengers or 6,000 lbs
(2,700 kg) of cargo, and a range of 1,500 mi (2,400 km), and
can operate from short runways.
Civil DC-3 production ended in 1942 at 607 aircraft. Military
versions, including the C-47 Skytrain (the Dakota in British
RAF service), and Soviet- and Japanese-built versions,
brought total production to over 16,000. Many continue to see
service in a variety of niche roles: 2,000 DC-3's and
military derivatives were estimated to be still flying in
2013.
