Built as a C-47B but modified to AC-47D with radar nose for checking navigational aids with 1858 AACS MATS. Here it is mis-painted and should have read 0-349250 or 0-49250. 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.

Carries spurious 'DC-6C' marking on the fin, but this was actually built as C-118A 53-3282 which suffered a landing accident then was rebuilt by Slick Airways in 1957. Written off on 22 February 1960 when it landed 1200 feet short at Elmdorf AFB (PAED) during a GCA approach. (The captain used the wrong rpm, manifold pressure and flap settings.)
