NAC's last DC-6 still sits behind their cargo facility at Fairbanks International Airport. Most of the remaining fleet has been sold to Everts but rumor has it NAC won't sell this aircraft because of its unique swingtail conversion.

"Geneve" is replacing the usual CV240 on the Zurich service because of heavy passenger bookings. It served SR from July 1951 until sale to Sterling as OY-EAN in June 1962. Passengers from another arriving flight walk unaccompanied across the apron - such was the easygoing situation in those days!
