Amelia Earhart flew herself into history this year, in a similiar plane to this one. Tragically it would be her last flight. Her flying career however won a victory for women and aviation

Too bad this image is so small. Would have been nice to look at a little larger. Check the "Learn" section on th website to see how to produce 150kb images that approach the 640 pixels max size.
Now there's a beauty! Douglas DC-3...my father flew one years ago. Just a gorgeous aircraft, and very capable. I wish this shot was a bit bigger (ie - full 640 x whatever), but otherwise, I have no complaints. To anyone that knows aviation, this screams it's year. Best of luck to you! 10
too small. should be 640 pixels wide! otherwise, not a bad shot, although I think i would have tried to get a shot without the big plaque thingy in it.
6 - Good idea for capturing an essence of this era for the Challenge (in my opinion a shot of this into a time capsule for this year depicts the era well). Criticism; as I am sure you both know and are being 'told', a bigger shot. Whilst a sepia style for this era would work well I think the colors here are great. I really like the ultra polish on the metal, especially set against the sky. A different angle (especially to try to exclude/hide that 'sign' would make this a better photograph in my opinion. Also, to be able to include both 'engines'/blades.
a very cool subject for this challenge! a shame this is too small to do well here, please check the tutorial regarding re-sizing for the next challenge to get the most out of your effort this looks like a great shot from what i can see
