The historic Delta Flight Museum unveiled a new piece: a classic DC-7B that flew for the airline several decades ago!
The plane was recently added to the museum’s collection after an extensive repaint and restoration project.
Here’s the plane’s final flight: from the sunny, warm desert to rather cold-looking ATL.
The plane flew for Delta from 1957 until 1968. It was officially retired to the desert in 2008 after serving as firefighting aircraft on the West Coast.
