The DC-3 HB-IRJ that now flies under Breitling replica colors was delivered to its original owner on March 12, 1940, and was used for various civilian and military purposes for various owners throughout the following decades. Breitling acquired the plane in November 2008, entirely restoring, repainting, and adapting it to European air travel standards and branding it with a vintage Breitling logo.
