Still wearing its former registration HB-ILD. Photographer: Unknown photographer.

Acquired from Air Siam in 1973 with the intention of starting a new operation, Eagle Aircraft Services.. Allocated G-BBVN and later LN-NAC but neither taken up. At the time of this shot it had been acquired by Norwegian Overseas Airways and was in the northside engineering area. Engines #2-4 have been removed, at least one going to Aer Turas C-54 EI-ARS. The aircraft was later moved back onto the main apron at Southend and was rumoured to be planned to be made airworthy again for Norwegian Overseas. This came to nought and the aircraft was scrapped at Southend in 1977.

Built 1946. Delivered to Northwest A/L as NC6403 18 March 1946. To Trek Airways as ZS-CIG April 1958. On -3 Sept.1960 while en route from Cairo to Johannesburg via Entebbe, the No.2 engine caught fire at 9,500ft and could not be contained. Unable to reach the Egyptian airfield at Assiout, it was belly-landed in a sandy area of the desert near El Badary. Despite the aircraft being in flames, all 61 passengers and 6 crew escaped to safety, although the aircraft was destroyed by the fire. Fire thought to have been caused by a leak from a fuel pressure pipe, ignited by sparks from the generator.
