Still in partial original livery of American Airlines, with whom it served from May 51 to Dec 66. Ownership passed on to F.B. Ayer in Dec 66 and James D. Melvin in Aug 78. Evidence suggests that it remained stored all that time in TUS until reported broken up in 1983. A great pity that after all that time it wasn't saved and preserved (by American Airlines for example). An added bonus with this photo is N2942H, an Erco 415-C Ercoupe c/n 3567.

Considering the state of it here, Mick Bajcar's May 1982 photo of the same frame came as a surprise to me. But anything was possible in those days for sure.

Reported operator was YAC Aircraft Inc. Sometime in 1984 it acquired the registration HP-1018 and was reported as having been written off somewhere in the Bahamas in the same year operating on a drug run. Even ASN has very little info about this one.

Damaged beyond repair landing at Congo Town Airport, Bahamas, in November 1986. The following extract is taken from the ASN report: Reportedly the engines lost power due to fuel starvation, and the pilot put it down on a closed airport runway. The aircraft wasn't low on fuel but may have had bad check valves which permitted the fuel to be inadvertently transferred to a tank not in use.

Operated by Trans-Air-Link departing runway 22 for Luqa, Malta and thereafter Larnaca, Cyprus. According to a source the crew was Capt. Guy Cottington, F/O Kim Goodman, and F/E Terry Exeley. Kim was the daughter of Hank Goodman who had owned another DC-6 airline called Klimex Inc., before he tragically died in an accident in his company's DC-6 N43865 whilst on approach to Kingston, Jamaica, in July 1979.

Early morning shot of this Trans-Air-Link DC-6C which had originated from Miami (via Gander I think) and arrived the previous evening in foggy conditions. The first approach resulted in a go-around but they made it in on the second attempt. These were the early days of TAL when they were operating as a 14CFR Part 125 operator, thus why the aircraft was unmarked. When they moved to operating as a 14CFR Part 121 air carrier, that's when the aircraft acquired Trans-Air-Link markings. (Credit goes to Marc Hookerman for that info). It would fly on to Luqa (Malta) and Larnaca (Cyprus).
