    Not an Electra. Looks like a Constellation.

    Lockheed C-69 Constellation.
    Correction (9-Aug-2024) - See comment by f104_zipper below. USAAF Serial No. 43-10311, c/n 049-1963. As per the Joe Baugher site, subsequently re-registered as N67952. Repurchased by Lockheed and [sold] to Capital Airlines, Sep 9, 1950, as 'Capitaliner Freedom'. Sold to Modern Air Transport Sep 25, 1961.

    I believe this is actually C-69 43-10311, Lockheed serial number 1963. After USAAC/USAF service, went to Capital Airlines and was broken up in 1965.

VAQ-33 GD-12 LAST FLIGHT WEB

from SDASM Archives

  • David said:
    The Connie never went to the boneyard for storage at Davis Monthan AFB...she went to Florence SC to be treated like a '66 Olds junker by the hammer heads that abandoned it there. Dave Hill, Connie Crew 1982

    I cried when I first saw the pictures of GD12 laying on the ground as junk. I was the last "qualifiied" aircrew on her until we retired her in 1982.
