C-47 "That's All, Brother"

Over 75 years ago, on June 6, 1944, That’s All, Brother led the main airborne invasion of Normandy. Piloted by Lt. Col John Donalson, the plane led over 800 C-47s that dropped over 13,000 paratroopers into a battle that changed the course of mankind. 75 years later, we were able to bring this great airplane back to the skies over Normandy for the commemoration of the 75th anniversary of D-Day.  Learn more about "That's All Brother"

Tours & Rides

“That’s All, Brother” has been restored to its 1944 condition, including its D-Day paint scheme along with a thorough historic interior restoration. The Commemorative Air Force maintains airplanes to be artifacts of living history, and you can experience the airplane first hand by touring, and even going for a flight. The entire flight experience takes a little more than an hour, with 30 minutes being the in-flight portion.  Book a ride on "That's All, Brother" for just $250/passanger.
