Photographed lining up on Runway 28R, (as it then was), at London Heathrow in August 1981. It made its last ever Heathrow visit the following month and was sold to TAL Trans Air Link as N867TA, passing in 1986 to the iconic DC-6 operator Northern Air Cargo Inc. of Anchorage, AK. Sadly it was written off in a landing accident at Deadhorse-Alpine Airstrip, AK., in September 2001.

I had flown on it in the Canary Islands in Feb 1973. Seen here at Palma shortly before leaving for Miami where it underwent maintenance prior to delivery to Zantop International in Jul 1975 as N434TA. I was to see it and photograph it again again as N434TA with Zantop in Apr 1980 and again with Northern Air cargo in 1989.

The famous sole surviving swingtail DC-6, bought by Buffalo in 2013 as a Bank of Utah trustee in order to keep the US registration. She seems to never have flown since arriving here and even still be sitting in the same spot in 2020.

I was a little disappointed to find this one in the maintenance hangar as I would have liked a better photo of it. The reason was that I had flown LPA-ACE-LPA on it in Feb 1973 when it was EC-BBK with Spantax (with swing tail but in passenger configuration).
