This DC-6 was acquired by Air Atlantique a couple of months before this shot and used for spares. Here luckily still carrying the full colours of Greenlandair with whom it had operated as OY-DRM "Sululik" from 6.72, the titles were soon removed. She was originally Canadian Pacific's CF-CZS from 4.57 and had a earlier UK connection when leased to BUA 1962-64 (G-ARXZ); ended up being broken up at MSE in 4.85

In the late 1970s and up to the late 1980s advertising balloons such as these were very popular, probably a tax-deductible way to fly. None of these three balloons still fly, G-SAFE on the left, owned by the Derbyshire Building Society and G-NBSI on the right owned by the Nottingham Building Society.
