Misc. DC-6 Shots Part 1
In another thread I was asked to post some shots of the DC-6. Back then I wasn't thinking too clearly regarding how much I would regret not taking more pictures in those days to look at now. But, I got a couple that might be of interest. Sorry 'bout the quality; no digital cameras back then!

Yup.....that's Eastern. And as I said in the caption, I flew that Connie (and others) while with them for a brief period. That picture was taken in the mid-sixties. Not sure of the exact date.

I've probably got a few thousand hours on that ramp alone with both EAL and UAL!
Every issue of Airline Pilot I get it seems has the name of someone who's "gone West" that I knew during my career. Perhaps your Dad was one of them. I think getting old has something to do with it. I'll no doubt see my own name in there one of these days.
my dad was based dca. i'm diggin up bones with these big time. we lost him 15 oct 03. i can remembern looking at, and being on, that very ramp.
