Swissair's fifth DC-2, delivered several months after HB-ITO (c/n 1332). It was originally destined for Spain according to Douglas records, and used by the European agent, Fokker, as a demonstrator. During a demonstration at Croydon it wore 'X-1331', apparently a fake American NX registration, because it could not fly abroad under its temporary PH-AKF mark. HB-ISI destroyed in an American air raid at Stuttgart, Germany in 1944. Photo from: ETH-Bibliothek Zürich This photo was added on 5 January 2025, and has since been viewed 172 times. |
