By the looks of the livery, LIA was almost a Sabena franchise in this period. Note that the registration prefix is OD for Lebanon though, not OO for Belgium. This aircraft was OO-SDC when with Sabena. On the right is the DC-7, OO-SFB. OD-ACY was worn by a new Vickers Viscount in January 1958, but that went to THY instead.

You can hear the roar from here... Australian National Airways' Douglas DC-6 VH-INW 'Kurana' at full takeoff power tucks away her gear, probably at Essendon in the early 1950s. This aircraft was delivered to National Airlines in the USA in 1947, registered N90894. When ANA bought her in 1953, they liked the National colour scheme so much that they adopted it themselves. Kurana was transferred to ANSETT-ANA when the airlines merged in 1957, and was sold back to the USA in 1960. She spent time on the Nicaraguan and El Salvadoran registers and was scrapped at Miami in 1977.

Considering the state of it here, Mick Bajcar's May 1982 photo of the same frame came as a surprise to me. But anything was possible in those days for sure.

I was on the airport without authority and wandered into the military area by accident. This aircraft was delivered to SAS as SE-BDL in 1948, then became XA-MUB in 1959, first with Guest Aerovías de Mexico and later with AeroMéxico. It later ended up with the Mexican Air Force, first as ETP-10001, then TP-103, and finally to the identity seen here. Info taken from the aircraft's log books. This DC-6 was last noted stored at Santa Lucia Air Base in Sep 1993.
