Basler Turbo Conversions Tour
"The DC-3 was a beautiful, stable, and virtually indestructible airframe going to waste. We realized that by turbinizing and modernizing the airplane it would go on for many years. For years the aviation industry had been searching for a replacement for this rugged and reliable aircraft. At Basler Turbo Conversions, we're building it."
- Warren Basler
1926 to 1997
As close as the piston DC-3 came to perfection, Mr. Basler knew that there was a need for a better and more efficient version of this highly reliable aircraft. With this vision, Basler Turbo Conversions was created. Production began in the new 75,000 square foot facility in January, 1990 at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Since that time, BT-67 aircraft have been manufactured and sold to customers from every corner of the world.
Today, Basler Turbo Conversions and the BT-67 configuration of the DC-3 / C-47 stand as a rare example of successful and complete remanufactured aircraft. The BT-67 and company staff proudly serve a world wide base of customers.
