Lockheed 1649A Super Constellation
N974R at Ft.lauderdale in 1988 being
readied for a ferry flight to Maine.When
it took flight after 12 years of sitting at FLL it made an emergency landing at
W.Palm Beach then another attempt later made it to Sanford Florida where
it sat.It now belongs to Flight of Fantasy
and Maurice Roundy sold it at auction
December 2007 along with his other
two 1649As in Maine.The one in the
photo was delivered to the German Airline Lufthansa in 1957. I would like
to thank Phillip Kemp for letting me
on the ramp to visit the connie even
though he said in a news article at the
time he rather not have any visitors.
Current status on this connie is
wait and see.
