I can recall even the locals thought this was a rare subject at the time, as it had only been with the Viasa subsidiary for a couple of weeks. Formerly N8637 of Seaboard, this 1969 aircraft went back to Douglas in 1.82 and on to Connie Kalitta in 2.84, taking up N31EK. Converted to 73CF in 7.85, she joined UPS as N852UP and stored at Roswell, NM from 2013; b/u

This is the 440 which famously became G-CONV but failed UK certification with Air Atlantique and is now preserved in Scotland. Originally flown by Mohawk and later Wright, Key and Basler. Became CS-TML with Agroar in 5.97 and first operated by Air Atlantique under that identity in early 2001 before British registration

With scrubbed Com-Trans St Kitts titles still visible on the roof and the renmants of "JBM" markings on the tail, here is the former G-AOIJ. Delivered new off the Santa Monica line to BOAC in 4.57, she was converted to freighter capability while still serving the British flag carrier in 11.60. Sadly, broken up at MIA in 12.92

TWA was the first owner of this Martin in 6.52, bought by Piedmont in 12.62 and by Southeast some ten years later. In fine form with the innovative rear airstairs lowered, this classic was near the end of her service with the Florida regional at the time of this shot. PBA went on to operate her from the end of 1975, then in late 1986 she found herself working down in the Caribbean until dbr by Hurricane Hugo on 17.9.89 at San Juan, PR. Last noted derelict in a corner there in 2003 and presumed subsequently broken up
