Parked in a far corner and barely visible from outside the fence was DC-6 HK-3530-X in full Transoceanica Colombia livery and with all four engines still present, although one is missing a cowling. It was moved to Puerto Colombia for display in 2017.

Parked in a garden by the sea in Puerto Colombia, some 35km west of Barranquilla. No external markings, but ex Transoceanica Colombia DC-6 HK-3530X

The DC-6 parked in a small garden in the coastal town of Puerto Colombia. There is no external identity visible, and the garden is now fenced off. But the airplane was first reported here in 2017, when they were cleaning up the airport in Barranquilla, some 35km east from here. A DC-6 and DC-8 were removed from the airfield, so I asume this DC-6 is the DC-6 from the dump in Barranquilla, HK-3530X ex Transoceanica Colombia. After arrival here in Puerto Colombia, engines were reinstalled and new fake cowlings have been installed.

Andrews AFB was home to many interesting prop aircraft in the mid-1970's
