The Douglas DC-3 is typically equipped with either Pratt & Whitney R-1830 Twin Wasp radial engines or Wright R-1820 Cyclone engines. The most common variant, the DC-3A, uses the Pratt & Whitney engines, which are two-row, air-cooled, radial engines. These engines provide the aircraft with reliable performance and efficiency for its era, making the DC-3 a legendary aircraft in aviation history.
Yes. Provided it meets all the standards of it's DC use a 3 phase switch can and is often used in DC circuits. But generally no, not if it isn't rated for DC use. DC is much harder to switch or interrupt.
The theory of converting AC to DC using a 3-phase induction motor and a DC shunt generator involves utilizing the induction motor to mechanically drive the shunt generator. When the induction motor is powered by a three-phase AC supply, it operates and drives the rotor of the connected DC shunt generator. This generator then converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy, producing a DC output. The process allows for efficient conversion of AC to DC, leveraging the motor's mechanical properties and the generator's electrical characteristics.

A typical Douglas DC-3 aircraft can carry around 25 to 32 passengers depending on the seating configuration and airline operator.
The plane most used to transport goods to the beleageared city of Berlin was the Douglas DC-3 or its military equivalent, the C-47. On the commemerative Berlin Airlift stamp is a famous picture of a C-47---or DC-3.
