Photo Comment

Former National Airlines Constellation N7134C delivered in 1957 was stored at MIami in 1963. Nordair bought the aircraft, registering it CF-NAM in December 1964. Stored at Montreal unmarked and used for spares, it was restored to flight in 1966. Nordair sold their Constellations beginning in December 1968 to Canairelief for relief operations in the Nigerian civil war (Biafrian airlift). CF-NAM was abandoned at São Tomé (with sister ship CF-NAL) after hostilities ended in 1970. Both aircraft are preserved as part of a restaurant next to the airport. In memory of Peter Marshall 1946 - 2024
