The first DC-2 for Czechoslovak airline ČLS, photographed on its day of acceptance. Flown to New York, shipped to Cherbourg and reassembled at Querqueville airfield by Fokker technicians. Crews were trained by KLM. On 20 April 1936, OK-AIA flew the first commercial service by a ČLS DC-2 from Prague to Vienna and back, and then departed to Amsterdam in the late afternoon. This schedule was perhaps too optimistic and headwind, low fuel, a failing radio, and upcoming darkness caused the captain to come down in a wheat field near Doornspijk, Netherlands. The brand new DC-2 was a write-off. Photo from: Douglas

EAL DC-2 in formation with the transatlantic Vultee V-1 NR13770 Lady Peace, flown by EAL pilot Dick Merrill. Another shot shows a second DC-2 too. Supposedly the photos were taken when Merrill set out for the big flight, but it is unlikely that he would have wasted fuel to formate with the DC-2s and the photographer's aircraft. Thus they were probably taken either before or after Merrill's transatlanic return flight, or during his return to New York, as NC13731 was the very DC-2 that flew in a new propeller for the Vultee to Harbour Grace, Newfoundland; see photos 415955 & 415972.

This aircraft was never delivered to the RAF. It did very briefly appear on the UK register in 1955 as G-ANZK owned Field Aircraft Services. The registration may have to been to cover the ferry flight to Bovingdon where it was broken up the same year. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

To get extra life out of the inadequate Roc fighter, floats were fitted with the aim of producing a target tug to replace Blackburn Shark floatplanes used in the role by the FAA. L3059 was the prototype. It showed instability and was wrecked in an accident at the Helensburgh Marine Aircraft Experimental Establishment in December 1939. A second conversion with an enlarged ventral fin was completed but its performance was poor. The FAA ended up replacing its Shark target tugs with landplanes. Photo from: Imperial War Museums
