Photo Comment

Ilford-Riverton Airways' first foray into the Curtiss Commando was this 1945 built C-46F which was previously with Zantop as N614Z (still visible under Canadian registration). Acquired in Feb/71 but by Jun/72 it had moved on. Later, in the 1980s, they and their successor Air Manitoba came back to these machines in a big way.
