This C-47A started life as 42-92725 of the USAAF, delivered in Feb 1944. In the late 1970s it briefly served with the Chile Air Force as 969, before being transferred to the Paraguay Air Force in the early 1980s as 2030. It reportedly suffered a mishap of some kind on 24 Nov 1994 and was wriiten off, ending up in storage.
