Lovely line-up of propliners. Behind are Convairs from Aero B Venezuela and LAGE. The Air-Sea Convair served with them as HB-IMU, having been sold to Altas Corp in Sep 1980 and stored at Miami, still in Air-Sea colours. Sold to Mexico in May 1981 and seen still in service in the late 1990s with AeroCedros at Ensenada as XA-RYV. Wfu and scrapped in the early 2000s.

Rare shot from my first trip to Venezuela of one of Linea Aeropostal Venezolana's Viscounts awaiting its eventual demise under the scrapper's axe. New to BWIA in 1955 then bought by LAV in 1.68; stored from 1.76. Parked adjacent were two LAV DC-3s and a C-46

Formerly used by Fairoaks Aviation Services and Intra (Jersey), this Islander found its way to the Caribbean in 8.75 to take up residence with this Tortola-based carrier established in 1971, its livery a little reminiscent of BOAC

I have another photo of this Convair, from 1971 when she was in service with Iberia as EC-APZ. Delivered to the Spanish flag carrier in 10.59, leased to Lineas Aereas de Guinea Ecuatorial 1972-76 and sold by Atlas Aircraft to Mexico in 1980. Last recorded as stored in poor condition at Houston-Hooks Field having reverted to the Atlas reg N829TA

First joining the Ministerio de Comunicaciones as YV-O-MC3 in 1.49, this rare C-47 (later YV-MC-1, YV-O-BYS and YV-O-MC2) was derelict at Caracas as YV-O-MC1 by the mid-1980s and dumped. Carries additional "Búsqueda y Salvamento" (= Search and Rescue) titles.
