The very same. Go figure. They give you a little bag of cookies at the end of
the flight. One of the DC-3's they have was Hap Arnold's (father of the Air
Farce) personal transport during WW II. I've never been in that one; flown in
the other one twice. If you call them far enough in advance, for a little
extra money, you can buy the right to sit in the cockpit during takeoff and
landing. During cruise everyone gets a chance to sit up there for a few
minutes.
