A good opportunity to see the unique DC-6 Swing Tail in action. Formerly EC-BBK and seen here receiving attention after delivery from Spain for Zantop, to be Willow Run based. Went to Northern Air Cargo in 1987 and now with Buffalo

NAC's last DC-6 still sits behind their cargo facility at Fairbanks International Airport. Most of the remaining fleet has been sold to Everts but rumor has it NAC won't sell this aircraft because of its unique swingtail conversion.
