I think this was the most beautiful DC-3 that I ever saw. Unfortunately I don't have it in color. It is ex Wright Cyclone-powered American Airlines DC-3-178 NC16013, later converted to Pratt & Whitney-powered DC-3A and operated by the Mexican Federal Commission for Electricity. The aircraft's name simply means "The Torch".
