But it was as the C47 that the design truly found its calling. Instrumental in the invasion of France in 1944, the C47 dropped not only thousands of troops throughout the war but also delivered hundreds of thousands of tons of supplies, much needed by both troops and besieged civilian populations. Serving in the West with both the RAF and the USAAF as well as licence built examples serving in Russia with the Soviets, the C47 was even to be found in the Far East, undertaking perilous supply missions to China, flying over ‘the hump’ of the Himalayas. It was even used to deliver vehicles such as Jeeps to forward bases. After the war ended the C47 continued to serve as a supply aircraft throughout the Berlin airlift as well as undertaking dangerous roles in the Arctic Circle, equipped with ski undercarriages. C47s even saw service during the Vietnam War as a gunship, nicknamed ‘Puff the Magic Dragon’. C47s continue in service with some air arms even today, with many being up-engined to Turbo-prop power plants.
