Esta foto me hace recordar, no se por qué, a la primera vez que volé, en un festival aéreo en Gral Roca, Río Negro. Yo era muy chico, tendría unos cinco años. El dichoso avión era un Douglas DC3 (o C47 Dakota, no sé), de la Fuerza Aérea Argentina. Subimos todos, mis padres, mis hermanos y yo... ¡Qué recuerdos! Sería en el año 1.977, más o menos...
En ese entonces vivíamos en Catriel, y los únicos aviones que alguna ves veíamos creo que eran Twin Otter de YPF, puede ser? Y la avioneta del aeroclub.

Mas adelante recuerdo algunos vuelos de los F27 de LADE (Incluso una vez pude convencer a mi viejo que me llevara a ver aterrizar a uno de los F27 en el aeródromo!!)
