VP-KLC  Douglas DC-3                                                           (c/n 14370/25825)

                                

                                    One of the DC-3s used to replace the Lodestars, VP-KLC was registered to EAAC in 1953.
                                    It was the former RAF Dakota IV KJ 876.  This nice shot, gleaned from EAAC in 1954 shows
                                    it in pristine finish at the old Eastleigh Aerodrome.   In August 1964 it, (along with several other
                                    DC-3s) was reregistered in Tanzania as 5H-AAK.   It was in Tanzania that it was written off
                                   after ground looping on landing at Mbeya Airport on July 5, 1973.
