Do you know why aircraft are known as a ship?
Marine language was transferred intact from marine to aviation use when airplanes were invented. In fact, many of the original passenger aircraft were flying boats. Hence, airplanes have rudders, galleys, cabins, bulkheads and port and starboard sides with red and green navigation lights. |

This DC-3 was manufactured in 1942 by Douglas. It was completed as a DC-3 airliner after the attacks on Pearl Harbor in 1941, and later served with the U.S. Army Air Forces as a C-49J.
In 1945, it was sold to Trans-Canada Air Lines, becoming the first DC-3 operated by that airline, registered CF-TDJ. Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company bought the aircraft in 1948 and refinished it for VIP transportation. It served with Goodyear until 1983, when the company donated it to the Museum.
