Discovered in a field in Beach City, Ohio, this DC-3/C-53 Skytrooper is being restored to its WWII glory by "Vintage Wings".

I love seeing them restore these old planes. I once worked with a guy that used to be a commercial DC-3 pilot. He once brought in an old overhead photo of the airport we worked at when it was a dirt air strip and had three DC-3 planes parked by the terminal.

Looks like they`ve got their work cut out, but these people know what they are up to and I`m sure it will all work out in the end.Cool
