This is former RAF Dakota KN656 (US serial 44-77021). It was operated by the FBS. After its military service in Germany, this aircraft became PH-MOA. It crashed as such on 3 June 1971 at Southend airport, England, while carrying 32 Ajax football supporters on their way back to Amsterdam. Luckily, they all survived the crash (and no, they did not cause the plane to crash).

The story on how the Zambia Air Force received the Dakotas and Pembrokes dates back to the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland and its break up in late 1963 when Nyasaland became Malawi, Northern Rhodesia became Zambia, and Southern Rhodesia became Rhodesia. The ZAF inherited four Dakotas and two Pembrokes from the Federal air force, the Royal Rhodesian Air Force. The Alouettes and Hunters remained south of the Zambezi in Rhodesia.

Ex I-TROS, arrived in Australia with New Holland Airways and carrying migrants. Sold to Butler which disposed of it in 1956. Went to the US where it became N55L. In Italy it had been fitted with an air stair, which appears to have been the rectangular forward half of the standard double C-47 door hinged at the bottom. It was markedly larger than the rounded airstair doors Butler had in its other former C-47s.

In 1982, the Indonesian Army had at least two C-47s on strength, A-9036 and A-9038. Unfortunately, little is known about these aircraft. This example is fitted with the AiResearch Maximizer kit, which indicates a previous civil career.

The aircraft emergency landed here 20 Nov 1945 piloted by Robert L Fox. It was recovered later and repaired and became NC342 with the Civil Aviation Authority. But apparently the crew had left the aircraft and disappeared as there is a Missing Air Crew Report for this accident.

When Ivory Coast became independent from France in 1960, its former colonizer supplied the country's first military aircraft in 1961, including this C-47, seen here four years later, but still wearing French markings.

It is not clear when and where this photo was taken exactly. The aircraft was seen at Labuan on 26 November 1966 on its way to Hong Kong for overhaul, in company with another. It is however thought that this photo may have been taken at Changi because of the RAF Hastings and Belfast in the background. This aircraft was transferred to the Royal Thai Air Force in 1971 and crashed in 1982 near Tkahli.
