<p>This DC-3, originally built in 1942 right here in Santa Monica for the United States military and in the collection of California Science Center for a while, was brought back to Santa Monica to become the centerpiece of a Douglas memorial in 2009. The Santa Monica Museum of Flight, under renovation, will re-open with this memorial as the focal point.
