From Wikipedia
Zadar (Croatian: [zâdar] (listen);[1] see also other names) is the oldest continuously-inhabited Croatian city. It is situated on the Adriatic Sea, at the northwestern part of Ravni Kotari region. Zadar serves as the seat of Zadar County and of the wider northern Dalmatian region. The city proper covers 25 km2 (9.7 sq mi) with a population of 75,082 in 2011, making it the second-largest city of the region of Dalmatia and the fifth-largest city in the country.
The area of present-day Zadar traces its earliest evidence of human life from the late Stone Age, while numerous settlements date as early as the Neolithic[citation needed]. Before the Illyrians, an ancient Mediterranean people of a pre-Indo-European culture inhabited the area. Zadar traces its origin to its 9th-century BC founding as a settlement of the Illyrian tribe of Liburnians known as Iader[citation needed].
In 59 BC it was renamed Iadera when it became a Roman municipium. In 48 BC it became a Roman colonia. During Roman rule Zadar acquired the characteristics of a traditional Ancient Roman city with a regular road network, a public square ( forum), and an elevated capitolium with a temple.
After the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 and the destruction of Salona by the Avars and Croats in 614, Zadar became the capital of the Byzantine theme of Dalmatia. In the beginning of the 9th century, Zadar came briefly under Frankish rule, but the Pax Nicephori returned it to the Byzantines in 812. The first Croatian rulers gained brief control over the city in 10th century. In 998 Zadar swore allegiance to Doge Pietro Orseolo II and became a vassal of the Republic of Venice. In 1186 it placed itself under the protection of Béla III, King of Hungary.
In 1202 the Venetians, with the help of Crusaders, reconquered and sacked Zadar. Hungary regained control over the city in 1358, when it was given to king Louis I of Hungary. In 1409 king Ladislaus I sold Zadar to the Venetians. When the Turks conquered the Zadar hinterland at the beginning of the 16th century, the town became an important stronghold, ensuring Venetian trade in the Adriatic, the administrative center of the Venetian territories in Dalmatia and a cultural center. This fostered an environment in which arts and literature could flourish, and between the 15th and 17th centuries Zadar came under the influence of the Renaissance, giving rise to many important Italian Renaissance figures like Giorgio da Sebenico, Giorgio Ventura, Andrea Meldolla and Giovanni Francesco Fortunio, who wrote the first Italian grammar book, and many famous Croatian writers, such as Petar Zoranić, Brne Krnarutić (1515-1573), Juraj Baraković and Šime Budinić, who wrote in the Croatian language.
After the fall of Venice in 1797 Zadar came under the Austrian rule until 1918, except for the period of short-term French rule (1805–1813), still remaining the capital of Dalmatia. During French rule the first newspaper in the Croatian language, Il Regio Dalmata – Kraglski Dalmatin, was published in Zadar (1806–1810). During the 19th century Zadar functioned as a center of the Croatian movement for cultural and national revival in a context of increasing polarization and politicization of ethnic identities between Croats and Dalmatian Italians.
With the 1920 Treaty of Rapallo Zadar was given to the Kingdom of Italy. During World War II, it was bombed by the Allies and witnessed the evacuation of ethnic Italians. Partisans captured the city on 1 November[citation needed] 1944; in 1947 it officially became part of SR Croatia, a federal constituent of the SFR Yugoslavia, whose armed forces defended it in October 1991 from the Serb forces who aimed to capture it.
Today, Zadar is a historical center of Dalmatia, Zadar County's principal political, cultural, commercial, industrial, educational, and transportation centre. Zadar is also the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Zadar. Because of its rich heritage, Zadar is today one of the most popular Croatian tourist destinations, named entertainment center of the Adriatic by The Times and Croatia's new capital of cool by The Guardian.[2] In 2016 the Belgian portal Europe's Best Destinations.com named Zadar the Best European Destination after a three-week period of online voting involving more than 288,000 votes.[3]
UNESCO's World Heritage Site list included the fortified city of Zadar as part of Venetian Works of Defence between 15th and 17th centuries: Stato da Terra – western Stato da Mar in 2017.[4]

Breitling's Douglas DC-3A @ Toronto Pearson Int'l August 17, 2017
IN THIS VIDEO:
Hello everyone! Welcome to this video! Here we have an awesome catch of the year! One that we knew very well in advance of. Breitling's DC-3, making a stop on The Breitling DC-3 World Tour to commemorate the 77th anniversary of the aircraft.
The aircraft arrived on Tuesday evening, to much surprise for all of us who were expecting it to arrive on Wednesday as planned. The aircraft did a media flight out to the Niagara Region on Wedneday and today it did two media flights around the Toronto area. Luckily, I was able to get the first one with a subscriber of mine, Notts boy 24, a RWY 05 departure and a pattern around north Mississauga before returning to land on RWY 05 where I just made it to get him.
After that, I headed to the North Lounge where he parked to get some footage of that too. Luckily, to my surprise, I ran into a few guys and we were given some awesome unprecedented access on the North Lounge apron to check out the aircraft. Such an awesome moment! That's why one should always follow the passion ;) Enjoy the video everyone!
The Breitling DC-3 still has one more media flight at 1400hrs before the departure to Boston Logan Int'l (KBOS) at 1600hrs local. The originally planned trip to Washington Dulles Int'l (KIAD) has been cancelled.

auf wiedersehen: used to express farewell; directly translated as until we see each other again. i think i prefer this term rather than goodbye, for the former carries an enduring hope for our futures, that one day we will meet again.

Breitling DC3 Dakota at Flying Legends Air Show 2015
The Douglas DC-3 twin-engine propeller aircraft first took off in 1935, at a time when Breitling was supplying civilian and military planes with its first onboard chronographs. Thanks to its peerless performances, its sturdiness, its low fuel consumption and its long-range capabilities, it revolutionized the world of air transport by enabling for the first time reliable and profitable commercial flights with a minimum of stop-overs. At the end of 1930s, most of the major American and European companies were equipped with this model. During World War II, the DC-3 - particularly in its Dakota version - played a key role in troop transport. Nicknamed the landing plane, it experienced its moment of fame in June 1944 by serving to tow countless gliders and dropping thousands of paratroopers on the coasts of Normandy. General Eisenhower even paid it a glowing tribute by defining it as one of the four pillars of the victory in Africa and in Europe. The DC-3 HB-IRJ flying the Breitling colors was produced in 1940 for American Airlines. Despite clocking up 75,000 flight hours, it has been maintained in exceptionally good condition. Purchased in the United States and restored in Miami, it was then transported to Europe, where it takes part in various aviation events. Thanks to its perfectly equipped cabin, it can be used at Buochs for passenger flights.
