Postwar-built DC-4 "Ciel de Lorraine" was delivered new to Air France on 26 June 1946. It served the airline until sale to Air Madagascar as 5R-MAD in March 1963. It crashed on 19 July 1967. It is seen on short finals to Ringway's Runway 06 inbound from Dinard (Pleurtuit) operating a weekly summer schedule from that resort.
