Old (...or rather 'ancient') Dornier Do-27 A5 from FPAC (Fundació Parc Aeronàutic de Catalunya) performing a beautiful sunset flight display at Festa al Cel 2019 by flight Instructor Rafa Molina.
There's also a spotters-spotting-each-other fun segment at the beginning, sorry if that's not to your liking but I felt compelled to include it in the video, ROFL.
The Dornier Do-27 was the first mass-produced aircraft in Germany following the end of the Second World War. Spain has a few, as they were used as trainer aircraft back in the day. The plane is a single-engine STOL utility aircraft that was designed and manufactured by Dornier GmbH (later DASA Dornier and Fairchild-Dornier).
The Do 27's precursor, the Do-25, was developed by Dornier at the firm's facilities in Spain in order to satisfy a Spanish military requirement that called for a light utility aircraft with short takeoff and landing (STOL) performance. However, the Do-25 was not selected for production by Spain. Despite this, the aircraft was developed further to produce the Do-27, which was produced in quantity in both Spain and Germany. In addition to domestic sales, a large number of export customers, such as Portugal, emerged for the Do-27, and it had a lengthy service life with some examples still being used into the twenty-first century. The aircraft was appreciated for its relatively wide, comfortable cabin and excellent short-field performance. In terms of its configuration, the Do-27 was a classic high-wing, "tail-dragger" aircraft with fixed landing gear.
