Try looking in the registry at landings.com. Use the multiple field search. I will also see if I can find out anything in my DC-3 monograph by Air Britain when I get home. -- David Ross http://home.attbi.com/~damiross > Hi all, > > I'm trying to solve a riddle dating from my USA trip in Spring 1999. > At Tulsa, Oklahoma (TUL) on 29/30 March 1999, next to the three ex-Alitalia > DC-8s I saw a DC-3 wearing primarily silver or grey colours and titles > "International Air" (perhaps "Airways" or "Airlines").
