At a small airfield in Ushuaia sits this airplane of the Armada Argentina (the Argentine Navy). It's not listed among the Armada's current airplanes, so I suppose it is just a display piece. See info at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argentine_Navy.
One of my Daily Photo-ers John C. is an encyclopedia of airplane lore, among other things. Thanks to him, I was able to find this on Wikipedia : The Douglas C-47 Skytrain or Dakota is a military transport aircraft that was developed from the Douglas DC-3 airliner. It was used extensively by the Allies during World War II and remained in front line operations through the 1950s with a few remaining in operation to this day.
