Does anyone have any information on a Connie that was registered as NC90922. I do know that in 1949, she was operated by American Overseas Airline. Thanks in advance.

L-049 c/n 2052 "Flagship Copenhagen" later "Flagship Denmark", then "Flagship Oslo". Damaged in Boston, MA May 3, 1949 when right undercarriage collapsed. Sold to Pan Am in 1950 as "Clipper Mount Vernon" and had another undercarriage problem in Miami on Jan. 29, 1957. Leased to Aeronaves de Mexico as XA-MAG before being sold to Panair do Brasil as PP-PDP in Dec. 57. Stored at Rio - Galeao from Nov. 63 until being cut up for scrap there around Feb. 70.

Found a couple of photos on Panair do Brasil's flicr site.
