This DC-6B led an illustrious life starting as CF-CZV with CP Air before moving to Scandinavia first with Transair as SE-BDG before going to Braathens SAFE as LN-SUT. Then she went to Greenlandair as OY-DRC. The last stop in Europe was with Air Atlantique as G-SIXB before heading for Southern Africa, first as 3D-ASA, then 3D-ASB with Air Swaziland, then to Interocean as C9-ASR. Later she became ZS-MUL with Avia, 9Q-CJE with Trans Service Airlift. She returned to South Africa as ZS-XXX where she is now a gate guard for Drakensberg Truck Manufacturers as ZS-MUL.

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.
