First flew as N5400V before delivery to Slick Airways as N6937C in 1957. They merged into Airlift International in 1966. To other owners from 1968. Converted to a sprayer in 1973. Stored at Mesa-Falcon Field in 1975. To Save-a-Connie Inc. and flown to Downtown Kansas City Airport, MO in 1986. Painted in TWA colours and restored to airworthy condition. According to Flightaware its last flight was to Downtown Kansas City Airport, MO in 2004. Preserved at the Airline History Museum there.

Fictious airline used for filming of movie "Homo Faber" by Swiss writer Max Frisch. This is of course the Save-A-Connie Super Connie, now sporting full TWA colors again (photographer not known)

This a/c was restored by the Save-A-Connie (SAC) organization from 1986-1988. SAC was renamed the Airline History Museum in 2000.

One on the Constellations that Airlift inherited when they acquired the assets of the bankrupt Slick Airways.

Taken shortly before sunset - see my long shadow!

A flying visit to MKC meant, unfortunately, that I had no time to enter properly the Airline HIstory Museum but it was still nice to see thise beautifully restored Classic just from the outside. Note N948TW in the background at the TWA Museum.

What a beautiful sight and sound.....this classic beauty departing Downtown Kansas City Airport for Dayton, Ohio

All four engines now running smoothly....what a sound!

The No.4 engine comes to life with a cloud of smoke!

The day of my visit, the aircraft was flying to the Dayton Airshow. After loading passengers onto the aircraft inside the hangar, it is towed outside for engine start.

Navigator's station is just aft of the cockpit.

First class seating was in the rear of the airplane.
