Interestingly a good friend of mine, now in his mid 70s flew the last airworthy example in the US from Chino Ca. to a museum in the eastern States somewhere where it was to be repainted into it's original Capitol colours and possibly kept airworthy, I have no clue what happened to that one, I guess it is still on display somewhere.
It's at the Mid-Atlantic Museum, Reading Pa. And to be pedantic it's Capital Airlines, Capitol was a different airline who never used Viscounts.
