C-54 N54577 Pot Haul, 1982 New Iberia LA
Mon Dec 14, 2015 7:40 pm
Found this old photo in my files of N54577 broke down with mechanical problems at KARA, New Iberia, LA in 1982. The crew told the rent a cop that the plane was filled with oilfield explosives and not to go near it. A day later it was empty except for the seeds and stems blues left from a massive load of the hippie lettuce that was offloaded at night. Not sure how the plane left New Iberia but I think it eventually ended up at Buffalo Airways. Tom, Lafayette, LA

Thanks for that photo, Tom - love those old Douglas transports. I hope you don't mind if I bring back the color a bit:
