DORNIER DO 28
by Matthew McDaniel
For years, a derelict twin mounted high on floats sat in the grass adjacent to the little terminal building at the Shawano,
WI airport. Only a select few pilots could identify it by type. Dan Fulwiler says he used to stare at it, thinking how unique and cool it looked. Pepe Anderas did the same, drooling and daydreaming about the plane while wondering what in the world it could be. Pepe and Dan agree; neither imagined in their wildest dreams that each would have one of their own. Unbeknownst to them, two more mystery planes were inside a nearby hangar. They were long dormant Dornier Do. 28A-1’s, patiently awaiting rescue.
