description=This Douglas "Stretch" 8 was found parked in an aircraft graveyard in Arizona, where it had been mothballed in 1983. Val-U-Prop executives thought it the pick of the bunch - actually it was the only one - and bought it for a song. After sandblasting bird manure from the interior and removing numerous snakes, the VP crew installed seats, sealed cracks in the fuselage and spray-painted the exterior. It received its airworthiness certificate from the FAA after the usual bribe, and now serves Val-U-Prop on its long routes - like Paoli, Indiana to Fort Wayne.
