K25 slide scan. Aircraft history well documented. Both DC-6's were occasional visitors on freight charters taking advantage of the fact that a piston engined aircraft could operate under VFR rules thus avoiding slots. Ready to taxi for positioning back to Coventry while DHL hub traffic was being held and piling up on the service road to enable an uncluttered shot to be taken.
