Registered in January 1959 and the date range given by the source is 1959-63. The registration was however cancelled, likely as a result of this crash, in May 1961 - but apparently again in 1972. The location is near Djanet in the deep southeast of Algeria, or perhaps at the town's airfield. The aircraft was used for touristic trips by 'pétroliers' (oil workers), and apparently not involved in warfare like F-OBAC. Photo by: Jean-Paul Roelly / ECPAD

A small but very interesting photo. Oil was struck at Hassi Messaoud, in the Sahara, in 1956 and this picture makes us suspect that Air Algérie acquired its Noratlas freighters specifically for the construction works here. The first was this regular N.2501, F-OBDX. Later there were three N.2502Bs with auxiliary Marboré turbojets on the wingtips: F-OBDX again, F-OBDY and F-OBDZ, with construction numbers given as B1 tot B3. DGAC still lists N.2502B F-OBDX as c/n 148, so this airframe will have been converted. Photo by: Gérard Daudu /ECPAD
