DOUGLAS C-47 DAKOTA

N2270W

93472 (c/n 13387) to RAF as Dakota III KG627.

returned to USAAF May 29, 1947.

then to civil registry as N2270W, owner is Nevada Airlines, LV 89119. Last record was 1986.

I have searched the internet - the only Nevada Airlines folded during the crash of 1929. I cannot find any other documentation.

If the plane is still flying, I would like to contact owner(s) - I found a photograph of the Plane from WWII and wanted to know if they would like it.

Thanks.

This Gooney Bird was sold to Nevada Airlines in April 1978.

They registered in July 1978 as N2270W.

It was reported as scrapped at Agana /Tamuning Guam (UAM/PGUA) - date??

USCAR apparently never updated.

Nevada airline was established and started operations in July 1974 when it was incorporated as Air Nevada, an on-demand charter operator.

Scheduled services started in 1978. After Eagle Canyon Airlines acquired its network of tour operators, Air Nevada ceased operations in January 1998,

changed its operating name to Pacific Wings and continued its scheduled services within Hawaii.
