 Dear Sir.

I want to draw attention to the fact that of the N841TA (then still flying with Trans Air Link) some fantastic sound recordings have been made by Mr. Nico van der Linden from Aerodynamic-Recordings

http://www.aero-dynamicrecordings.com/html/frames/main_frame.html

For example, one can hear the plane take off in full glory.

The CD's in question are THE GLORIOUS SOUND OF THE DOUGLAS DC-6 VOLUMES ONE AND TWO.
But Mr. van der Linden has also made some other unmatched recordings.
