Douglas C-47 Belgian Air Force OT-CWG v1.0

This folder contains a repaint for the Douglas DC-3 from the 40th anniversary pack. It shows Douglas C-47 c/n 20823 OT-CWG of the Belgian Air Force, as it is currently preserved in the Brussels Air Museum. Originally delivered to the USAAF as 43-16537, it came to Belgium in 1947, flying with 169 Wing-366 Squadron as K-16. It received the serial OT-CWG in 1949 while with 15Wing-TC21 Sqn. It was later converted to a ViP transport and flew as the Royal DC-3. In 1972 it was struck of charge, with 6836 flight hours, and was moved to the museum in Brussels in 1973, where it was restored to its original configuration as OT-CWG. Repaint by JanKees.
