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).

A good opportunity to see the unique DC-6 Swing Tail in action. Formerly EC-BBK and seen here receiving attention after delivery from Spain for Zantop, to be Willow Run based. Went to Northern Air Cargo in 1987 and now with Buffalo

NAC's last DC-6 still sits behind their cargo facility at Fairbanks International Airport. Most of the remaining fleet has been sold to Everts but rumor has it NAC won't sell this aircraft because of its unique swingtail conversion.
