History of Aircraft

This Douglas DC-6, cn 43148/157, started out with Sabena on 27/05/1950 as OO-AWU. It was shortly thereafter re-registered to OO-SDD on 23/07/1951. After a lease to Transair Sweden from 18/12/1960 until 25/01/1962, it was returned to Sabena, and subsequently leased to the newly formed Air Congo as of 01/04/1962. After nationalization of the airline in 1965 the aircraft was re-registered as 9Q-CLA as of 31/12/1965. It flew for the airline until 1969 when it was transferred to the Congolese Air Force and registered 9T-TLA. It was transferred to the Zaire Air Force 12/1971. Ten years later during 1981, it was sold to cargo outfit Lukim Air Services and registered 9Q-CBM. The end came 1982 (some sources suggest 1986) when this DC-6 was scrapped.
