The only time I've ever seen a Martin 2-0-2. This one was first delivered to Northwest Orient way back in 11.47 and arrived in Colombia in 1973 after service with Central American as N71R. Wfu by 1977 and eventually disposed of from the dump which was out in mid-field and also contained a couple of DC-4s, a C-46 and an A-26

My first trip to the legendary Villavicencio was aboard this wonderful old machine. Had the choice of a DC-3 or DC-4, both delayed by bad weather over the mountains. Well looked after by a very pleasant crew, the FAC pilots just like they were out of a WW2 B-17

Operated at this time by the Colombian civil aviation authority, this former USN R4D-6 was acquired from the FAA (N69). She remained in Colombia, flying commercially with Interandes and ADES until crashing as recently as 2007 (see my shot as HK-1149 with Interdandes)

Quite a collection of piston power. After much research with a Colombian expert, the identity of this C-47 is now known (2021), as are several of the previously unknown FAC Daks. FAC677A turns out to be the former N91379, which was delivered to Colombia circa 1981. I was lucky enough to be able to tour the COTAM ramp allowing for close up shots of that rare DC-7 (FAC923) which was originally BOAC's G-AOIA, although the weather didn't play ball.

In 11.75 Avianca bought this 727 from Pan Am, her owner as N326PA since new in 5.66. Seen here in nice evening light, she was destroyed by a terrorist bomb on 27.11.89 (set by the notorious drug lord Pablo Escobar) while climbing through FL130 after departure from Bogotá for Cali with the loss of all on board

Originally Seaboard's N124SW and later TF-CLA with Cargolux and TR-LWF with SOACO, this CL-44 was sold to AECA in 11.80. Dbr at Miami on 19.1.82 when gear partially retracted on landing after unsafe warning. Stored as seen here and scrapped some years later, although one wing was used to repair N104BB which had also suffered an undercarriage failure, at Boston
