Still with the titles of its previous operator Transportes Aéreos Suravia from Chile, which operated this Commando from 1969 to 1975 as CC-CEX. In 1978 they sold it to LATISA (Línea de Transporte Interior Sudamericano), also from Chile, but they never operated the aircraft and it remained stored. It was bought by Frigorífico Santa Rita in 1983 as CP-1848, and it is seen here being readied to be taken into service by them. It was destroyed in an accident on 13 September 1993. Photographer unknown

Acquired by the museum in 1988, this is C-46A 43-47350 marked as R5C-1 BuNo 39611. As this C-46 never was assigned to the USMC and the Air Mobility Command Museum at Dover AFB, Delaware did not have a C-46 in their collection, the aircraft was transferred to Dover in May of 2023. It is currently undergoing restoration there.

Date range is an estimate. Location need confirmation.

A rather sad photo of this lonely and abandoned Commando that served so many, starting with the USAAF as 42-3679, but also the Israeli AF and many civil operators, up until SELVA Colombia as HK-3150 from 1984 until 1995 (the word 'Colombia' of its former operator is still visible). Unfortunately, this aircraft was scrapped in 2019.
