STN

As a Police Officer I recall the CL44 at STN in 1971/2 always fascinating a/c. I recall a Swiss registered model, River Plate Airlines that used to bring animals in and most of all, a semi-derelict a/c that sat on its belly full of rubble.

To my amazement one day a guy built a frame and the a/c was emptied of rubble and spent some 3-5 months in the hangar being rebuilt.

It was then back in the air, cannot recall the reg. The Guppy was a regular visitor always impressive
