Used by British Netherlands Air Service, then bought by Garuda Oil Co as PK-PAB in 1951, later also serving Caltex. To Dept of Civil Aviation in 1970 and last noted as still stored although the airpot has long since been closed and built over

First joining the Ministerio de Comunicaciones as YV-O-MC3 in 1.49, this rare C-47 (later YV-MC-1, YV-O-BYS and YV-O-MC2) was derelict at Caracas as YV-O-MC1 by the mid-1980s and dumped. Carries additional "Búsqueda y Salvamento" (= Search and Rescue) titles.

This 1942 C-47 was in Italy with the USAAF during the last part of WWII and remained there afterwards with Linee Airee Italiane as I-LINA. After the merger with Alitalia in 1957, went to the Air Force in 1960 and flew electronic missions with 14° Stormo Radiomisure. Dumped at Practica di Mare in 1998 and still derelict there. Sad for what was arguably the star of that Fairford show, but at least there is a similar example beautifully preserved in the IAF museum at Vigna di Valle
