Duckbutt is correct. Aratu, located north of the city of Salvador, now serves as a base of operations for the Brazilian Navy. You have control.

Actually, with little to go on, and considering the aircraft's history, could it be Schiphol?? RR

I said it would not take long. Skytrain10 has it, it is Gatwick,the photograph of Adria Airways DC-6B was taken circa the end of the 1960s outside the Air Courier's Hangar located on the south side of Gatwick Airport.
You have control
