Large Picture Comments: Ex RAF FD789, painted in fictitious RAF marks CR496 for its role as Winston Churchill’s transport in the movie The Eagle Has Landed. It became EI-BDU on 18/10/78, restored as G-AKNB on 29/1/82, before going to the USA as N59NA on 22/7/85. It still flies (with its original USAAF serial) as 42-32817/3J-B, with the name Bones, in spurious D-Day colours.
