This C47 was based at this airfield in WW2 and dropped the 101st airborne into Normandy. This was the first time that it had been back since WW2 - this clip is of it taking off from the Upottery airfield - Devon. We were all honoured to be there. Thanks Robin and thanks to Lawson Green the cameraman!

Another short clip of the same C47 taking off again wished that I had more but the prop blast was throwing so much dust and grit up that I had to abandon the idea I was amazed at how little runway it needed to get airborne

A pretty amazing day down at Upottery in mid July - a visit to the airfield by E Co vets. The C47 took off with a certain Mr Neil Stevens aboard and being watch by E Co vets Don Malarky and Earl McClung - bottom left hand corner of screen, they left from this very airfield and this very runway June 5 1944
