Built as for the USAAF as C-46F 44-78565. Sold to Slick Airways as N67939 in 1948, Connor Airlines as N1837M in 1950 and Wien Alaska in 1955. Bought by Carl Everts in 1968 and moved Canada in 1973 as CF-FNC, initially with with Reindeer Air Services and later with Ken Borek, Lambair, Ilford Riverton Airways and Northland Air Manitoba. Returned to Alaska as N1837M with Everts Air Fuel in 1990 and stored before restoration to fly in 1992. Crashed and sustained substantial damage in 2013 but such is the value of the C-46 to Everts that the aircraft was rebuilt to fly again by early 2017.

This photo is said to show a hijacked DC-3 at Key West in October 1960, but obviously this is a C-46. Many hijackings occurred and although Cubana absorbed Aerovias Q during 1959, a 1960 date might be possible. Ex 42-107292, this airframe was not acquired by Aerovias Q until February 1959. Despite the word 'Bienvenidos' on the terminal, this does seem to be Key West. Photo from: Florida Keys Public Libraries

Built in 1943 and served with both the USAAF and US Navy. Here it is en route from Pakistan to the USA and was scrapped when N9900Z at Miami (KMIA) in 1978. During the 1950's and 1960's, the US government was applying a policy of containment towards communist influence in certain regions of the world. As part of this, the US Army Corps of Engineers was building military infrastructure in friendly countries. OFW became one of their majors contractors so they likely had a project in Pakistan. They also operated Aero Commander 680 N6854S.

A pity about all the junk around it. It did eventually fly again from circa 1977 as CP-1333 with Transportes Aereos Ilimani.

Headed by Bolivian aviation legend Rolando Canedo, Lineas Aereas Canedo restored this C-46 to an immaculate standard. Fitted out in passenger configuration with 32 hand stitched leather seats, the company planned to fly the aircraft alongside their equally immaculate C-117D on charters in Bolivia. Unfortunately circumstances brought about largely by a downturn in the Bolivian economy meant the aircraft was seldom flown. Sadly, Rolando passed away in 2019 but both the C-46 and C-117 survive at Cochabamba.
