Found this a minute ago:
The C-47 groaned, it protested, it rattled, it leaked oil, it ran hot, it ran cold, it ran rough, it staggered along on hot days and scared you half to death, its wings flexed and twisted in a horrifying manner, it sank back to earth with a great sigh of relief - but it flew and it flew and it flew.
— Len Morgan. The C-47 was the U.S. military designation for the DC-3.
I love it! "but it flew and it flew and it flew"

Yes and it still flies better than a lot and is reliable a lot till today for those who care for history.
I've been banned for constantly ignoring the forum rules, spamming, being abusive to mods and making false accusations against them. They've modified this profile to show everyone what happens to obnoxious foul-mouthed little idiots!

Another good one goes something like this...
"When the very last 747 is retired to the bone yard, the crew will be picked up and taken home aboard a DC-3"

Actually I believe its also when the last C-5 is retired a C-47 will take the crew home. Heck it coulda actually happened with the Starlifter
