Comments: This Basler DC-3 conversion is from a 1943 Oklahoma built C-47 for the USAAF as 43-49007. Later converted for the US Navy to a R-4D6 & later to a SC-47J. In 1966 it went to the Federal Aviation Administration. It was then passed onto the US Department of Agriculture Forestry Service in 1975. Basler purchased the aircraft in 2004.
