Hi all.
Back in 1956,The French Air force had loand 10 Douglas C-47 Transports to the Israeli Air Force.
These were flown from Beaumont AB to Israel,Were operated in October 56 war and returned.

Hi.
It seems that the aircraft in your list are French AF Daks which were purchased by the IAF in 1967,They are not the aircraft which were loaned in 1956,And which were all returned.

In that case I doubt there's any surviving records.
