So where the heck do I start. If you follow my Ride of the Day thread in Buckys Hangout, you would have noticed that I posted this plane as the ride of the day back on Jan 15th. With the following Write up in said post
"" For today im sharing probably my favorite plane. Buffalo Airways Douglas DC-3 C-GPNR "FOR THOSE WHO DONT KNOW THE DC-3 AND C-47 ARE THE SAME AIRCRAFT!! the DC-3 being the civil version of the military C-47. The aircraft that Joe uses is actually a C-47 though it is also often referred to as a DC-3 IN THE SHOW" I saw this plane numerous times on the show "Ice Pilots NWT" on Netflix. It's a cool show y'all should check it out its about a airline that only uses old planes, Not the fancy Jetfuel, full of instruments can fly itself ones like today. If i could find a model of a DC-3 for cheap id build one!!""

Well apparently a couple of months after posting that, I get a PM from someone asking me for my address, not for him but for someone else. So after scratchin my butt puzzled to all heck I say ok and gave it to him. Next thing I know about a week or two after that this arrives from someone who wanted to be anoynomous but i quickly figured it out after searching members list and realizing only one person lives in the town on the box it came in.. This is what i got in that boz
So after i was speechless by receiving this out of the blue, The original person Pm's me again asking me about the decals. I honestly told him, I would order them at some point when I came into some money sometimes down the line. So he basically tells me a day or two after that, Check your mail. Well within two and a half weeks, These show up at my house.
So to the both of you I appreciate your generosity and kindness. It genuinely made me speechless and understand there are some good people left in our hobby. I owe you both a debt of gratitude and thanks. When I get around to building this, It will only be posted here on OSM!!.
PS i didnt make you both known, didnt know if you wanted me to. Feel free to make yourselves known if you wish.
Thank you for making a far off dream build a reality for me
