I think the problem goes deeper. Consider the people around him. Rational
people would have beaten him to death years ago. There must be a bunch of
dumb****ers there. You don't suppose all nee zoolanders are stupid, do you?

He's not, of course. It's just the other way around. According to
Wikipedia, there are 4 Viscounts left out of 445, which is less than 1
percent, while there are somewhat more than 400 DC3s left out of
13,000 built which is about 3%. Which is as close as Proctologist
ever gets to the truth.



LOL - who tells you those porkie numbers???

400 DC3s in operation? Have they been breeding around behind the
hangars? There were under 250 left operating 15 years ago!
I hadn't realized there were so many Viscounts built - it was much more
successful than I imagined!

Seth first, Sarah - his figure doesn't match my information by around 30
years.
You, on the other hand have absolutely nothing to add to the discussion.


Unlike you, who provides everyone with daily laughs with your stupid
and inaccurate assertions about subjects you know nothing about and
can't even do simple searches to verify.



Seth made up his numbers - Wikipedia is neither accurate nor
authoritative and as such doesn't count.

You haven't provided any information that you didn't pull out of your arse,
groggy.


400 DC3s still flying - LOL.



:You, on the other hand have absolutely nothing to add to the discussion.

Your usual response after being slapped with a cite...



My usual response is to ask for a cite to the information I was refuting
- think about it.

So you're telling me that yank wisdom is "Jack ****" - fair point.

ignorance.

Yeah huge. 3 left running around. Huge success by your moronic
standards.

In other words, it proved you dead wrong as usual some you make up
some crap like this, having no source whatsoever for your crap. There
are other sites saying the same things, but it's obvious you can't do
a simple google search to find them, being so stupid. You have
exactly zero sources for your crap.

Wikipedia is made up of "facts" dredged up or imagined by idiots like
you - it has no credibilty.



400 DC3s in operation? Have they been breeding around behind the
hangars? There were under 250 left operating 15 years ago!

The "success" of the DC3 is due to two facts:
- the wing root structure was much stronger than required.
- a world war began at the point in time when it would have soon been
discontinued and it's specs were close to those required for a military
transport aircraft.
Had Germany won WWII, the Ju52 would have been the aircraft feted.
