Originally built for KLM in 1957 and operated by them until 1962. Then it was used by Martinair from October 1962 through April 1965. Operated by Modernair as N383M from May 1965 through 1969. It appears the Golden Odyssey Club was leasing this aircraft from Modernair when I took this slide.

This DC-6 made an emergency landing at KBTR after hitting trees on approach to the airport in New Orleans, LA. in heavy fog the day before this slide was taken. New Orleans is about 50 miles southeast of Baton Rouge. Note the damage to the wing leading edge from a tree. There also was extensive damage under the fuselage, including a gash running from the wing to the tail. Additionally, the number four engine was damaged and was shut down and feathered, as can be seen in the slide. They were lucky to walk away uninjured from this incident.
