This DC-3, ex 5B-CBD, was displayed on a roundabout in Jeddah from the 1980s until 2007. Many roads near the new airport in Jeddah were improved then, and several preserved aircraft along those roads were removed. These remained unreported for more than 10 years, and were assumed to have been scrapped. But with the help of Kev Perry I managed to locate this DC-3 in a compound in the Ar Rabwah district in Jeddah. Part of the wings are removed but are still there in the same compound. There are also a Vampire and a Texan here, see my other photo.

Found inside a compound in the Ar Rabwah district in Jeddah, with faded Arabic serial ٢٠١ (201) still visible on the tail. The aircraft in front is a Vampire FB.52, ex RSAF 515, which was last painted with fake serial "501". This Texan and the Vampire were both displayed on a roundabout in the Al Salamah district in northern Jeddah until at least Nov 2012, but both were gone from there by Apr 2013. They still survive in this yard, but both are in terrible condition. There is also a DC-3 here, see my other other photos.
