There is a question mark hanging over the c/n for this aircraft. Conflicting evidence suggests that there may have been two DC-3s registered XA-JIH to Aerovias Oaxaquenas within a short period of time. One was c/n 4225 and the other c/n 9904. I cannot find any other information on c/n 4225 other than it was reportedly registered to Oaxaquenas in Sep 79. The c/n 9904 frame was previously with Basler as N138H and records indicate that the US registration was cancelled in Jan 80 as "exported to Mexico". If anyone has more definitive information, please contact me.

Operated by Tursair. Substantially damaged whilst crew training at Opa Locka 21 Jan 82. Not much known afterwards except that it was apparently sold a few times (but presumably not in airworthy condition) and that the registration was eventually cancelled in Aug 2012.

In 1975 Florida Airlines took over both Air South and Shawnee Airlines, because their route networks supplemented that of Florida Airlines perfectly. The two airlines continued to operate under their own names as Florida Airlines subsidiaries, but their combined routes were marketed as "The Connection". Some aircraft carried large "The Connection" titles, and often also the actual airline's name in smaller size. The reg was cancelled in Apr 77. I saw a photo of it still at Sarasota in 2013 albeit in a more derelict state.

"Doornroosje" getting marshalled into position after a scenic flight on the Hoogvliegersdag 2012. On this day, chronically and terminally ill children are given a day they won't ever forget. They get to fly (a few times), in smaller aircraft (PA28/C172), but also on larger aircraft like this DC-3, which did a couple of group flights. The weather cooperated and all in all and it was great seeing a lot of happy faces, very rewarding.
