VH-RRA was withdrawn from use in 1978 and stripped of useful parts. Despite having relatively few hours, the number of holes drilled in the fuselage and wings for experiments made it unsuitable for commercial use. The hull was used by the Sydney airport fire service until 1988 when it was scrapped completely.

The sky over Berlin, with the C-47 candy bomber over the entrance of the Technikmuseum, and the 'Weltballon', D-OCUL, tethered near Checkpoint Charlie. The aircraft seems to have a colourful striped fin but only has a yellow tailband in reality; the blue is shadow and the red is a clamp on the rudder. Other identities were T.3-54 in Spain, G-BLFL and N951CA.

In the wake of the collapse of Jetair, the Australian government snapped up its DC-3s and gave them away as foreign aid along with several RAAF aircraft. The idea was to take these aircraft out of reach of anyone else planning on taking on then duopoly of Ansett and TAA. The two-airline policy could only be enforced by import restrictions because interstate trade was protected by the constitution. VH-EQN was donated to Nepal.

This is former Israeli Air Force C-47B 034, still showing those markings and the serial. It was ferried from Israel to the USA in August 2000 and soon stored here, with Comanche Air at Ephrata. A few years later it was restored for Lyon Air Museum at Santa Ana, CA, where it is now based in its original D-Day markings. It is ex 44-76791, delivered to the USAAF in April 1945.
