Ex 45-0962, NZ3553, ZK-ERI, D6-CAE and SAAF 6871(2). Registered as ZS-LJI in August 1982 and converted to DC-3-65TP by Wonderair. Operated by Virunga Air and later Professional Aviation Services, it was impounded at Beira, Mozambique in July 1998, allegedly for cigarette smuggling. Stored in a hangar there until 2013 when it was parked outside. Still present in a derelict condition in April 2023.
