I had not edited the comment.

If you did not, I was the chief pilot of the company that owned the Wrigley DC-3 from the late 70s to the early 80s.

Please feel free to contact me for photos of the original interior of the Wrigley DC-3, as it was when we owned it and/or for any other information. By the way, did you get the original log book? Quite a treasure just by itself due to the passenger lists of very famous people, a lot of movie starts during the time the Wrigleys owned it and old Chicago Cubs baseball players. If you did not, that is a sad loss.

After we owned it the Hodges Truck Company had the aircraft. After that it was sold to an air adventure tyoe company in Switzerland to fly tourists around the Alps. It was not until around 2008-9 that I learned that this DC-3 was somwhere in Califorina, bascily rotting away. Broke my heart.

I was very pleased to hear that someone had purchased Wrigley DC-3 and that you were going to restore. To be honest I’m a little sad that it is obvious that the orginal interior had been replaced, if you would like some photos of the orginal Wrigley interior, please let me know and I will send them to you.
