Ex USAAF 42-93251 and Air France F-BAXG. Operated by CNET as 13142 / F-SEBD since 1964, until transferred to Amicale Jean-Baptiste Salis (AJBS) on 24 May 1980. In 1981 it was allocated registration F-BLOZ, but this was not taken up. A static exhibit at La Ferté-Alais since the mid 1980s, and used in the movie "Suivez Cet Avion" (with "Honeymoon Airways" titles) in 1989. Painted in USAAF markings In the 1990s with various fake serials, first 315111, then 315101 and finally as 313142. In 2015 a new restoration project was started for this aircraft, and it is seen here stripped of most paint.
