Notes:

Museum of flight, Boeing Field, Seattle. The aircraft wears original Trans Canada Airlines livery and registration, where it served from 1954 to 1960, being then sold to World Wide Airways and then decommissioned in 1965. After that, the frame was used used as a restaurant, bar and convention center by the Regal Constellation Hotel. Then it was sold again, kept in Toronto Pearson Airport, sold again, fully restored at Rome, New York and finally sent to this museum. Thought not airworthy, externally the plane is in really mint condition.
