Hiya,

Maybe not known to many that Richard Branson, founder of the Virgin Group also founded a little vintage airline in the early 90's called Vintage Airways.
Based at Orlando, Florida they operated 2 C-47/C-53's for sightseeing flights to Ft. Lauderdale and Key West.

There C-47 was the N12RB (Romeo Bravo aka Richard Branson), named after Amelia Earhart, soon available as repaint for Manfred Jahn/Jan Visser's C-47.
