The 1942 Douglas DC 3A N8336C Spirit of Douglas is currently in New Zealand as part of a world tour to commemorate the 1924 world tour of three Douglas World Cruisers and the 90th anniversary of the DC 3. The original Douglas World Cruisers did not come to New Zealand but the Spirit of Douglas is owned by a Christchurch based New Zealand businessman so I guess that is why it is here. I heard it fly over Warkworth on Saturday afternoon (14 March) but it was above the clouds. And today Tuesday 17 March it is flying from Auckland to Christchurch.
Simon Hills took these photos of N8336C overflying Koputaroa earlier on today.
In this photo you can see that it has Spirit of Douglas above the windows.
Thanks for the photos Simon.
