This Dakota belonged to the 355/1 STM based at Thessaloniki-Sédes. At that time, the base was equipped with metal plates taxi and runway. The noise coming off from the main gear when rolling over the metal plates during take-off, overwhelmed the beautiful engine noise. That came to an abrupt end when the aircraft started to fly, the one could enjoy the engine sounds. The once USAAF Skytrain, (43-49479) and RAF KK156 was transferred to Greece in September 1949. It was eventually withdrawn from service early 2005. KK156 was last seen at Tanagra air base in 2013.
