Eastern Airlines was retiring the last of their piston powered airliners when this Convair was photographed arriving in Louisville (they did temporarily acquire Convair 440s again with the merger with Caribair in 1973). N9313 went through several aircraft brokers when sold in November 1970. Flying again with Air Calypso (8P-FUN) 1973 - 74, the aircraft served with the Sri Lanka Air Force as CR-811 from 1973 - 82 (see much better photo 339308).
