Ex Conair Tanker 49 (C-GJKT) and still in their colours. Acquired by Everts in 2000 and noted being stripped for spares in the Everts hangar in Jun 2011. Originally delivered to Western Air Lines in 1957 as a DC-6B, this aircraft was converted to a quick-change pax/cargo version with forward and aft cargo doors (DC-6C standard) by Pacific Airmotive, under subcontract from Douglas, and then transferred to the FMS as a C-118A for onward delivery to the Chile Air Force. It served with them until 1982. This photo is copyright © Aad van der Voet, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
