Photo Comment

Flying Tigers flew this CL-44 in standard configuration 1961 - 68. Sold to Conroy Aircraft, it was converted to the specialized CL-44-O Conroy Skymonster and leased to Transmeridian Air Cargo in 1970. Variously leased and stored over the years as EI-BND, 4K-GUP and 9G-LCA, the aircraft was schedule to be scrapped in 1999, but was instead prepared for another lease as late as 2002. It remains stored at Bournemouth, UK at the time of uploading, grounded due to air regulations issues.
