Three C-46s in any one place is pretty special but when they are Chinese Air Force that makes it even more so. These were one of the first displays to be seen when entering the museum in 1991, sadly, none at the time had visible serials. One, since identified as 36044 has moved on to the China Civil Aviiation Museum while the other two, both of which remain unidentified remain at Datangshan.

Built in 1944 and served with both the USAAF and US Navy. Later it was repainted in the beautiful gold/black livery of Seaboard World and, being a common sight in Europe, was listed in the Ian-Allan spotters books in the 1960s. On 21 February 1973 it crashed at Barrancabermeja, Columbia after an engine failed.

Built in 1944 and served with both the USAAF and US Navy. Later it was repainted in the beautiful gold/black livery of Seaboard World and, being a common sight in Europe, was listed in the Ian-Allan spotters books in the 1960s. On 21 February 1973 it crashed at Barrancabermeja, Columbia after an engine failed.

Ex SAESA, standing devoid of markings at a part of the airport reserved for derelict aircraft. The registration can just be made out on the fuselage. Another similar aircraft is behind this one, with a Comet to the left.

First stop of a three-leg cargo flight [Winnipeg - Island Lake - God's River - Winnipeg] which I had the great pleasure of flying jump seat on. I spent a total of four hours and nine minutes in the air on this magnificent aeroplane.
