DC-3 A Bridge Too Far / Interocean / African Air Carriers

Compliments of the season to you all.

Some homework for you re C-47 / DC-3 construction number 27215 (DC-3 A Bridge Too Far / Interocean / African Air Carriers)

I believe this a/c was scrapped at Lanseria in the 1980s

I would appreciate any further info than what is below courtesy of ATDB

Photos would be good please
