Seen at the 1986 Welkom Air Show, ZS-FRM carries a sticker for the Friends of the SAAF Museum, Aviation Society of Africa, and the SA Dakota Association. ZS-FRM first flew in 1946 and was built with uncompleted C-117 parts. She joined Det Danske Luftfartsselskab as OY-DCU and was named Ulf Viking, a name she continued to carry when DDL became a constituent member of SAS. She went to Linjeflyg as SE-CFU and later Austrian as OE-LBN. Moving to South Africa, she joined Comair's fleet in 1968. She ended her life in Africa serving in Zimbabwe as Z-WRU and later Kenya as 5Y-BIL. In the late 1990s she was damaged in Nairobi and written off. Photographer unknown Photographer unknown
