"Great value"
vulcrider (SC)
Beautiful detail. Extensive decal sheet. Not too complicated especially for a new or returning to the hobby modeler. Can be detailed out to whatever level you want.

 
"nice 1/72 scale c-47"
bigmac1959 (Sparks,Nv)
built this kit as D-day plane went together nice great for new modelers or someone a few builds under their belt over all fun build

 
"Very nice older kit, good build, the detail is not up to today's standards"
rarem37
This kit builds up well, but it is not up to the standards of today's new molds. The gaps and joins need sanding to get smooth. This kit has been issued in a number of different versions including a gunship. They all have one thing in common; you must use a great deal of car when installing the cockpit glass. It is a very tight fit and if you try to force it; it will break!

Information

The DC-3 is one of the most famous aircraft in the history of aviation. Its introduction in the 1930's revolutionised air travel and made it possible for even the average person to afford to fly. When WWII began in 1939, the DC-3 was quickly adapted for military use and pressed into service as the C-47, also known as the Skytrain. The C-47 was used by all the Allied nations during the war and continued in service long afterward. Eventually, some C-47's were even converted to heavily armed gunships and used in Vietnam.
