Is There A Stamp For The Dc-3 Aircraft?

http://www.dc3history.org/airworthysurvivors.html will give you an overview of some of the DC-3s still flying Many are available to ride. Personally, I was fortunate to ride in the C47 version of this fine old bird in the late 90's at the Mount Comfort Air Show in Indianapolis. There are at least three DC 3s privately owned and flying here in Indiana.

Look at "Fly The Ford" and "Aluminum Overcast" on the Experimental Aviation Association web sites for a chance to tour and ride in a Ford Trimotor and B17 respectively. Both can be found on stamps in the series previously mentioned showing the DC 3.

On June 2, 1988 Finland issued a souvenir sheet (Facit BL4 1054-7) with four stamps for the Finlandia 88 Stamp Exhibition. The stamps feature recess and offset-printed aircraft of Finland's aviation history. One of these stamps (Facit 1056), shown here, depicts a 1947 Aero O/Y (Finnair) DC-3.

From wikipedia, "In 1923, consul Bruno Lucander founded Finnair as Aero O/Y....The Finnish government wanted longer routes, so it acquired a majority stake in the company in 1946 and re-established services to Europe in November 1947, initially using the Douglas DC-3."

Pic shows a Finnair DC-3 restored in 2014.

This .65 euro stamp of Finland is from a single-pane booklet of 4 similar "airplane" designs issued on March 3, 2003 to commemorate the centenary of powered flight. Four "par avion" labels are included in the booklet.

This 17 p value (Sc #634) of Jersey is from a set of six "aircraft" stamps issued on April 1, 1993 to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Royal Air Force. Stamp depicts a RAF Douglas Dakota C47 (military version of DC-3) in flight.

On March 25, 1981 Papua New Guinea issued a four-stamp set honoring its 'Defence Force'. The 15 toea value (Sc #537) of this set shows a Douglas Skytrain or Dakota C-47 (military version of DC-3) and its aircrew.
