can you hear the music?

An evening arrival at ANC.

Looking very smart just minutes after arriving back at Fairbanks from a repaint in Seattle, it was the only member of the Everts fleet to receive this scheme. Written off landing at Candle on 1st August 2019 after a flight from Fairbanks.

Starting #4 as it prepares to taxi for an engine runup before departure.

One of a kind Everts paint scheme. Before he passed away, Cliff Everts told me that he hated it and it would never be repeated. This aircraft was written off after striking a berm while on final approach to the airport at Candle, Alaska on August 1, 2019. It was operating as Flight VTS-24 from Fairbanks to Candle and the good news is that none of the three crewmembers onboard were injured.

Working hard on engine #1 of this fuel hauler.

Overview of the storage section of Everts' apron at their home base. From left to right they are C-46 N1822M 'Salmon Ella', DC-6 N60759 (ex Tanker 49), DC-6 N451CE, C-46 N23AC and DC-6 N51599.

Unusual colours on this Everts tanker. Operating for them since 1993 but still not fully painted.

Typical nose down approach of a DC 6 as this one lands on Runway 01 at Fairbanks.

Everts DC 6 departing Fairbanks on a perfect clear and sunny morning.

Taxiing in after landing on Runway 1L at Fairbanks. There are not many places you can see these old classic Dc6's flying these days and this one was built in 1953 and is still going strong.
