Carries spurious 'DC-6C' marking on the fin, but this was actually built as C-118A 53-3282 which suffered a landing accident then was rebuilt by Slick Airways in 1957. Written off on 22 February 1960 when it landed 1200 feet short at Elmdorf AFB (PAED) during a GCA approach. (The captain used the wrong rpm, manifold pressure and flap settings.)

Taking the opposite route of many classic propliners, this DC-6 (and sister ship C-GKUG) started as an airliner with Western Airlines in 1957. Bought by the USAF 1965 and converted to C-118A 65-12816, it was leased to Chile under MDAP as FAC 985 in 1967. Returning to the USA in 1982, it was added to Conair's fleet in April and converted to a tanker. Sold in 2000 to Tatonduk Outfitters Ltd (Everts Air Cargo) as N60759, the aircraft was moved to their storage yard in Fairbanks, AK in 2002 where it remains, now registered N511CE.

Built for Northwest Airlines in 1956 and later flew with Sterling Airways in Europe. Imported by Conair in 1974, it was one of a pair converted for pollution control where chemicals were pumped out of the large pipe in the tail. Oil spill dispersal in the Gulf of Mexico was what they worked on so here probably only for some maintenance related reason. Later converted for water dropping and cancelled in August 1994 after being scrapped at Abbotsford/BC.
