Frankfurt Friday 6 6th September 2024.

N569R, Douglas C-53B Skytrooper (DC-3), part of the Air Classic collection, displayed on the roof of terminal 1 at Frankfurt Airport, 1993.
I saw this plane in Swissair colours, with the (fake) registration HB-IRN at Munich Airport in 1996!

The plane has a white upper section, grey lower section, and a pale blue stripe running along the body separating the 2 colours.
A grey building stetches into the distance along the left of the frame, with grey skies filling the rest.
