Historic Delta DC-3 To Visit BWI Airport

Aircraft Touring US As Part Of Airline's 75th Anniversary

This week, as part of their 75th anniversary celebration, Delta Air Lines will fly their completely restored Douglas DC-3 aircraft to Baltimore/Washington International Airport (BWI). The historic DC-3 will land at BWI at about 10 a.m. Wednesday, July 14. The aircraft, while parked at Gate C-10, will be visible to the public from the BWI Observation Gallery, located on the upper level of the BWI Airport terminal, between Concourses B and C.

To celebrate Delta's 75th anniversary of passenger flight service, the restored DC-3 is touring and visiting more than 60 locations throughout the United States during the spring and summer. This historic plane is the only aircraft ever to win a National Trust for Historic Preservation award, which was presented in 2001. The restoration effort took more than four years and 3,000 volunteers to complete. Today, the DC-3 flies around the country to educate the public about America's aviation heritage.
