This photo is said to show a hijacked DC-3 at Key West in October 1960, but obviously this is a C-46. Many hijackings occurred and although Cubana absorbed Aerovias Q during 1959, a 1960 date might be possible. Ex 42-107292, this airframe was not acquired by Aerovias Q until February 1959. Despite the word 'Bienvenidos' on the terminal, this does seem to be Key West. Photo from: Monroe County Public Library This photo was added on 19 June 2022, and has since been viewed 388 times. |
