Photo Comment
Several Soviet C-47s visited Dübendorf in July 1945, bringing a delegation demanding the repatriation of Soviet citizens who had ended up in Switzerland during the war. Formerly 43-49075, this C-47B-10DK was assigned to the Russians in November 1944. On a photo of CCCP-L1011, seen in the foreground here, -L960 appears to have a painted out military red star on the tailfin.
