This was the one and only U.S. Army Air Corps C-41, N41HQ. It's a stock 1938 DC-3 that was requisitioned by General Hap Arnold. It served as his personal transport from 1938 - 1946. The plane was purchased by the Otis Spunkmeyer Cookie Company and flew through 1990s as one of the two Spunkmeyer DC-3s. I was a Captain on this plane in 1995 - 1998. I shot this photo with a Hasselblad 500ELM, 80mm lens on Kodak Portra color negative film, f-8, 1/500th sec. Copyrighted photo by Robert Campbell.

Taken on April 19, 2022, while waiting for takeoff at KEWR. This mammatus cloud rolled in from the west and shut down the airport until it moved off to the east headed for Manhattan, which can be seen in the distance. Copyrighted photo by Randolph Palma.
