DC3 Flagship Missouri
I believe that the tail number on this beauty is NC16008, which means that this is American Airlines' Flagship Missouri. It went into service in November 1936, and I'm assuming that the plane is on display in St. Louis for locals to see.
Unfortunately, the Flagship MIssouri crashed on October 15, 1943 in Centerville, Tennessee when the plane lost altitude due to ice on the wings or propeller and crashed into a hill, killing all aboard. Here's more information about the accident:
