Delivered to Southend from Blackpool, ex-BIA Air Cargo, on 9th September 1974 for Macedonian Aviation. Never entered service and Macedonian ceased operations on 6th November 1974. The four Macedonian C-47s (G-AMHJ, 'MPO, MRA & 'MSV) were sold to Humber Airways in December 1974 who intended to use them on oil rig support but the contract didn't materialise and Humber Airways ceased flying on 13th January 1975. The C-47s were at Exeter and never entered service, passing on to Skyways Air Cargo. This photo is copyright © Terry Dann, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
