EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Douglas DC-3 aircraft, registration number OD-aM, of Air Liban, parked gracefully at Beirut International Airport in the late 1950s or early 1960s. The Douglas DC-3, a legendary aircraft manufactured by Douglas Aircraft Company, revolutionized air travel with its introduction in the late 1930s. Its distinctive design and versatility made it a popular choice for both civilian and military applications. In this image, the DC-3's sleek silhouette is bathed in the soft, warm glow of the sun, casting long shadows on the tarmac. The aircraft's distinctive propellers are a stark contrast against the clear blue sky, while the red, green, and white livery of Air Liban adds a touch of elegance and sophistication. The airport's control tower can be seen in the background, a testament to the bustling aviation activity during this era. The Douglas DC-3 played a significant role in the development of Air Liban, which was established in 1945 and became the national flag carrier of Lebanon. The aircraft's reliability and versatility enabled the airline to expand its network and connect Lebanon with the world. This photograph is a snapshot of a bygone era, a time when air travel was an exciting and glamorous adventure, and the Douglas DC-3 was a symbol of progress and innovation in the world of aviation.
