Delivered to Eastern Airlines as N457A in March 1952. N469M was re-registered to Mohawk Airlines when it acquired local routes and 15 Martin 404s from Eastern in 1962. In 1965 the Martins were traded to Ozark Airlines in a swap for Convair 240s to rationalize each other fleets. in 1968 Ozark sold their Martin fleet to Fairchild-Hiller for more FH-227s. Stored in Las Vegas, the aircraft is pictured in Louisville en-route to a new owner in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Several brokers and lessors later, it was last with Shawnee Airlines circa 1974 and broken up in 1976.

TWA operated this Constellation as the "Star of Delaware" from 1950 - 1967. Pictured with Central American Airways who would fly the aircraft between 1967 - 1973 after which it was leased to World Citizens International, a travel club. Bought by CIM Associates in late 1974, the airliner was impounded at Lome, Togo on November 1976 when it landed with mechanical problems. While being made airworthy again, a mysterious fire broke out onboard and the fuselage burned out on October 22, 1977. The aircraft remains were used for fire training.

TWA operated this Constellation as the "Star of Delaware" from 1950 - 1967. Pictured with Central American Airways who would fly the aircraft between 1967 - 1973 after which it was leased to World Citizens International, a travel club. Bought by CIM Associates in late 1974, the airliner was impounded at Lome, Togo on November 1976 when it landed with mechanical problems. While being made airworthy again, a mysterious fire broke out onboard and the fuselage burned out on October 22, 1977. The aircraft remains were used for fire training.
