Boy, there's an anti-terrorist fence if I ever saw one.

If you love something, let it go… unless you're in love with a helium
balloon. Those things don't come back, you know.

Looks like it has a "speed kit" installed: not the landing gear doors.
Also, is this an ex-American Airlines airplane? It has the entry door on
the right instead of the left side which was more typical.

I grew up under the flight pattern at Capital Airport in Sprinfield, IL
- I have the same memeories. In fact, we probably saw each end of the
same flights.

This is the 6th DC-3 built, C/N 1499 ex American Airlines NC16005
"Texarkana". Served in the Army in WW2 as 42-56092 and still exists.

Is there a way to determine where it is? My father took the photo before he
boarded the aircraft.

case, at 1015 WEDGEWOOD DR
