Remarks: The proud crewmembers of this beautiful DC-6 are polishing the mighty PRATT & WHITNEY R-2800-CB engines-cowlings, after arriving at Lelystad (EHLE).
Remarks: This baby did a flyby I had never seen before. Shot was taken when the pilot put the aircraft in a very steep turn. Pilot received a well deserved loud ovation when he arrived back at the airport.
Remarks: This aircraft was repainted in period (1953) KLM colours for a Dutch television program; the number "21" refers to the aircraft's starting position in the 1953 London to Christchurch air race.
