This old DC-4, initially built for the USAAF and after a long career, was bought from Invicta by Spantax in August 1967 presumably for parts as it was never painted in BX colors and was sold the same month to become the main piece of Aerolandia Bar in the vicinity of San Pablo airport.

This aircraft had certainly done the rounds, after USAAF service it operated for the Chinese Nationalist airline CNAC and such iconic carriers as Flying Tigers, California Eastern, Transocean and Riddle. Sadly, in 1981, it met its end in suspicious circumstances when, whilst owned by Southern Aero Trades Inc., it was damaged beyond repair at an unknown location in Colombia.

Early January 2010, Haiti was struck by a massive earthquake. As the airport of its capital Port-au-Prince had only limited capacity to receive large aircraft, Dutch aid was flown to Curacao per KDC_10 T-235, seen here in the back and reloaded onto Florida Air Transport's C-54G N406WA, which brought it to Port-au-Prince.

Early January 2010, Haiti was struck by a massive earthquake. As the airport of its capital Port-au-Prince had only limited capacity to receive large aircraft, Dutch aid was flown to Curacao per KDC_10 T-235, seen here in the back and reloaded onto Florida Air Transport's C-54G N406WA, which brought it to Port-au-Prince.
