Filmed at Hässlö Airport in Västerås and in and around the Västerås Flygmuseum with legendary aviation organization Flygande Veteraner (Flying Veterans) whose work helps preserve and keep these incredible aircraft airworthy for future generations.

About the aircraft:
The Douglas DC-3 is one of the most important airliners ever built, and helped shape modern commercial aviation. The aircraft in question today is the famous Daisy, who wears classic SAS colors. The SK 16, Sweden's designation for the North American Harvard/Texan trainer, played a key role in military pilot training and remains a favorite among warbird enthusiasts today.
