Registered to the Board of Trade in 1955 and here wearing an non-standard paint scheme (light areas are Dayglo) and an almost illegible registration that suggests an experimental livery or use as a film prop? This was rectified by 1966 and the aircraft was withdrawn at Stansted in March 1981. Here looking the worse for wear, but destined to be preserved at the East Midlands Aeropark.

Built as a C-47B and later modified to AC-47D with radar nose for checking navigational aids with 1858 AACS MATS. Here looking immaculate after a recent re-paint. Re-designated to EC-47D in 1962 to make way for the AC-47D gunship version. To Thai Air Force as L2Or-1/07 in 1963. Preserved at Lopburi, Thailand by 1995.

Obviously a VIP aircraft and probably using call-sign "SAM 33234". If anyone recognizes the tail badge, I'd like to know. In 1981 it was registered to Northern Air Cargo as N4213X and cancelled 15 August 2006, having previously been scrapped.

Built for Hunting-Clan in 1958 and operated like this until merged into British United Airways in June 1960. Photo ID: 358046 shows it re-titled shortly thereafter. In 1968 it flew with Air Ferry then was exported as HB-IBS in 1969. In 1982 it became C-GIBS with Conair and was converted to a forest fire retardant bomber. Current in 2021 as N851CE with Everts Air Cargo in Alaska.

Probably here on a MATS charter, for which it was employed from June 1958 to August 1959. It later flew with Trans International and Capitol so would have been seen quite a lot in Europe. Ceased flying operationally in 1968 and was last known of stored at Sebring/FL as shown here.
