DC-3 Engine startup approved (Explored)

This gorgeous DC-3 was completely abandoned in Barajas (Madrid) since 1974, when the operator Aeroflete went broke. Left without owner was given to Aena, which agreed to donate it in April 2010 to the Fundació Parc Aeronàutic de Catalunya (FPAC), which is based in Sabadell (Barcelona). It is now waiting there to be restored. As I work there it was easy for me to take this picture, in which I appear in my work outfit.
