We were lucky enough to get three of the Mauritanian Fairchilds through Southend for maintenance. This aircraft, of 1959 vintage, initially served the colourful Bonanza Air Lines (which had a fleet of 11 of the type) as N148L then N748L, being sold on in 7.74 by Hughes Airwest via IAL to Mauritania. She returned to the US in 12.83 and two years later found her way to Aerocozumel in Mexico, taking up the reg XA-NAP formerly used on a Comet 4. Wfu at Cozumel early '90s

Flying as a 340 with United Airlines christened "Newark" from 1952 to 1959, Gem State acquired this 580 from Frontier Airlines. They would quickly merge with Air Pacific (USA) to form Golden Gate Airlines and a year later merge with Swift Aire before closing the doors. This Convair went to Sierra Pacific, who occasionally leased it out, until the registration was cancelled in 1995.

Flying as a 340 with United Airlines christened "Newark" from 1952 to 1959, Gem State acquired this 580 from Frontier Airlines. They would quickly merge with Air Pacific (USA) to form Golden Gate Airlines and a year later merge with Swift Aire before closing the doors. This Convair went to Sierra Pacific, who occasionally leased it out, until the registration was cancelled in 1995.

At her home base on the Kentish coast, this was one of a trio of the Friendship derivative briefly operated by Skyways before they went out of business later that year. New with the evocative Mohawk Airlines as N7817M in 4.67 and sold by Allegheny to Wien in 5.74. After gaining the cargo door she came to England in 8.78, passing on to TABA following Skyways' demise as PT-LBG. Very derelict at Belém by 2004
