Most recently it was flying with Air Tonga, and the interior has been kitted out with parts from the Air New Zealand 737 wrecking yard. So it's pure 40s-50s on the outside, and early 80s faded airline seats and plastic panels on the inside. The cockpit is stock, however... There’s a bit of cognitive dissonance with this plane.

I've always wanted to fly on an airplane with radials... whenever they've had a b-17 in town, they always want at least $400 for 15 minutes... which is a little hard to cough up. Very cool.
