yam[25] - Dakota {3 of 6}
Internal layout when carrying paratroopers - note the way the seats have space behind them.
Two "sticks" of 14 was the standard capacity for static line drops.
There were several notices saying that the seats were designed for 13stone of paratrooper & kit, so if you weighed more, to sit down gently and perch on the front edge.
To the RAF this is the Douglas DC-3 "Dakota" to the USAF it is the C-47 "Skytrain".
Currently carrying the D-day black and white stripes on the wings and just in front of the empennage.
