One of four stretch DC-8s operated by American Flyers Airline in their reddish-orange livery and here about to load up for a North Atlantic charter. This one leased from Flying Tigers and unusually it retained the same registration for its entire 35+ year life.

Gatwick was a major European hub for the Canadian Armed Forces. Douglas Dakotas and Bristol Freighters ferried personnel from and to France and Germany while the Hercules and Yukon were used across the Atlantic. Delivered to the RCAF in 1961, this one went to Zaire in 1974 and scrapped there in 1983.

A bit of mystery is this ex-RAF Dakota acquired by the RCAF after WW-II. It was based in Europe 1955-70 then retired to the No. 1005 Technical Storage Detachment at Saskatoon in 1971. Registered as CF-BKR in January 1972, but by December it was off the CCAR with no foreign registration or accident data found. Hard to believe this cream-puff didn't have a post-military career, but it seems to have been scrapped at Saskatoon.

This was the first year of the re-designed Skylane fuselage having four inches greater width and the short-lived 'Omni-view' wrap-around rear window. Colors were sunflower yellow and chocolate brown. It survived until at least 2009 when it was substantially damaged landing at Eslöv Airport (ESME), Sweden.
