If he'd added a 6th image this DC-6 thread could then possibly have been titled "Six Of The Best"

Looking for Transair Sweden c/n 43559/251, registered in Sweden as SE-BDY known as "White Albertina." Like the picture above, but without the red stripe as typical for UN-aircraft.

In the meantime, but even in the UN one does not want to admit that UN Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjöld was shot down by Tsombe's people with a Vouga Magister. The whole thing is covered up to this day and is opaque.
In April 2014, the Guardian published evidence implicating Jan van Risseghem, a military pilot who served with the RAF during World War II, later with the Belgian Air Force, and who became known as the pilot of Moise Tshombe in Katanga. The article claims that an American NSA employee, former naval pilot Commander Charles Southall, working at the NSA listening station in Cyprus in 1961 shortly after midnight on the night of the crash, heard an intercept of a pilot's commentary in the air over Ndola – 3,000 miles away. Southall recalled the pilot saying: "I see a transport plane coming low. All the lights are on. I'm going down to make a run on it. Yes, it is the Transair DC-6. It's the plane," adding that his voice was "cool and professional". Then he heard the sound of gunfire and the pilot exclaiming: "I've hit it. There are flames! It's going down. It's crashing!" Based on aircraft registration and availability with the Katangese Air Force, registration KAT-93, a Fouga CM.170 Magister would be the most likely aircraft used and the website Belgian Wings claims that van Risseghem piloted the Magisters for the KAF in 1961.[29][30] A further article was published by The Guardian in January 2019, repeating the allegations against van Risseghem and citing further evidence uncovered by the makers of the documentary Cold Case Hammarskjöld, including refutations of his alibi that he was not flying at the time of the crash

JK , You are a machine (in the best possible way) I 100% love the shot of the one on the ground for some reason.
