Norwegian Dakota Foundation's Douglas C-53-DO Dakota filmed displaying during the Duxford Flying Legends Airshow 2017. The aircraft was built with serial number 11750 by Douglas Aircraft Corporation, Santa Monica, California, USA in 1942. The airframe is a C-53D-DO, in contrast to the C-47 it has not got the cargo door and reinforced floors in the loading area. A total of 16,079 Dakotas were built in different variations, while only 159 of the C-53D-DO’s were built. DO designation means that the tail was reinforced so that the aeroplane could tow gliders. This Dakota was delivered to the U.S 8th Air Force in England on the 8th October 1943. The exact history of the aircraft is unknown, but she participated in US 8th Air Force operations from October 1943 until 1945. The aircraft was acquired by the Finnish authorities in 1948 and operated by Finnair until 1969. From 1969 to 1985 the aircraft was operated by the Finnish Air Force and was used as a VIP aircraft for President Urho Kekkone. Thore Virik and Arne Karlsen from Norway purchased the Dakota from the Finnish Air Force in 1985. Since August 1986, the Dakota has flown in Norway with the Norwegian Dakota Foundation,registered as LN-WND. The Dakota Norway Foundation has as as purpose to maintain this piece of cultural history and to keep this flying museum airworthy. Classic plane operators are subject to the same stringent requirements for maintenance as all other operators in the aviation industry. A corps of of volunteers of the Foundation work very hard year round to let the public enjoy the intoxicating sound of the old, good Pratt & Whitney piston engines, now and in the future. The LN-WND has spent 38.600 hours in the air, this should say something about the reliability of this famous design.
