Thirty-six C-46Ds were purchased from USA and 12 from the Republic of China Air Force (ROCAF) that included the C-46A and C-46D. All C-46As were converted to C-46D standard. They started operating in 1955 from Tachikawa and by the Miho Detachment, which evolved into the Air Transport Wing comprising of the 401st and 402nd Sqn. Three at Iruma were used for ECM. This ex-ROCAF aircraft at JASDF Hamamatsu Kohokan was flown by the Flight Check Group for navaid calibration till phased out on 11 March 1978.

This C-46A was originally built as USAAF C-46A 43-47330. It was transferred to the JASDF on 22 December 1959 and was withdrawn from use on 25 August 1976.

Firing up and raring to go !! A puff of smoke from the exhausts heralds imminent departure. About to taxi out from its parking spot in the area behind Buffalo's hangar at Yellowknife Airport. In September 2015, suffered engine failure en route to Norman Wells. Unable to maintain altitude, a forced landing had to be made - intentionally wheels up - on the short gravel airstrip at Déline in very poor weather conditions. The aircraft considerably overran the runway. The crew evacuated safely, but the aircraft was written off.

Approaching over a fortified beach on Kinmen (Quemoy). Shelling of this island by PRC artillery on the mainland started on 23 August 1958. According to online sources the island's old airfield on the west side closed that day, to be replaced by the current Shangyi airport (RCBS) at an unspecified date. Details about the airframe unknown - it seems to wear a FY 42 serial with six sequential digits but it cannot be deciphered. Photo by: John Dominis / Life

Imported into Canada in 1987 as C-GTXW for Air Manitoba after post-military registration in Venezuela and Dominican Rep. Here it has just returned from time in Kenya on famine relief from 1994 on. After restoration as C-GTXW it was wrecked while with Buffalo Airways by being deliberately landed wheels-up at Déline/NT on 25 September 2015. (Bar River is the last place anyone would expect to find a Kenyan registered C-46.)
