Photo Comment

Bought by British European Airways ex XY-ACN (Union of Burma Airways) and here in later service with Silver City. Changed hands several times and its last UK assignment was as an exhibit at the Imperial War Museum, Duxford, 1982 to 1989, after which it was exported as N59NA. In 2014 it was converted to Basler BT-67 Turbo and current as C-GOOU in 2021.
