In the 70’s Air Florida had a DC-3 run from Sarasota to Miami that cost $28.00 , what a great flight, fairly low over Okeechobee and the Glades. And now I really appreciate the fact that I got to fly on a DC-3.
WHAT? I can't hear you!

My first flight was a DC-3. My dad took me from Daytona Beach to Jacksonville. The aisle was so slanted that I had a hard time walking to my seat. We flew low the entire way and went over an airfield that had thousands of fighter planes in mothballs...maybe it was Green Cove Springs. My mother, brother, and sister picked us up at the JAX field and we drove to visit Silver Springs before going back home. It must have been about 1947 and we had our first new tires on the car since the war.
