The Plane that Led D-Day

Found in a scrap yard in 2015, the C-47 that led the D-Day landings was reconstructed for a transatlantic mission to honour the fallen. This is its incredible story.

Engine problems threaten the restoration, and emotions run high as residents from Greenham Common - whether the plane took off from the UK - remember seeing it in its glory.

The restoration is complete and relatives of the original crew share their incredible stories as they board the aircraft. Will i survive a gruelling voyage over he Atlantic?
