                                           Two more Sandringhams were supplied by Short Bros to DNL to replace those lost in
                                           accidents (see entry for LN-IAV).  They were LN-LAI, "Jutulen" seen above in this
                                           nice study from SAS, and LN-LMK "Polarbjorn" .  The above machine was formerly
                                           a RAF Coastal Command Sunderland, serial number W4037.   Both were absorbed into
                                           the SAS fleet, although disposed of shortly thereafter.     LN-LAI was chartered to France-
                                           Hydro and sank off Bangui, in French Equatorial Africa in November of 1952.
