This aircraft was built as C-47A 43-30652 and delivered to USAAF on 9/23/43, and assigned to the U.S. 12th A.F. in Algiers, North Africa. On 9/6/44 the plane was transferred to the U.S.9th A.F. It was returned to the USA on 7/22/45, and went to the Reconstruction Finance Corp. three months later. Shortly afterwards the plane was sold to Pennsylvania Central Airlines as NC65135. In 1946 the plane was transferred to Summit Airways, then to Challenger Airlines in Jan. 1947, and then in Dec 1949 it went to Frontier Airlines. On 3/9/65 the plane was acquired by Miami Aviation Corporation and on 4/27/65 it went to Canada as CF-RTB with Eastern Provincial Airways. A few more changes of hands and in Aug 1987 it was registered as C-FRTB with Skycraft Air Transport. (information from Arthur Pearcy’s “Douglas DC-3 Survivors.”) Aircraft now registered as N345AB.
