Default "Swissair" Convair?

Jeg ser at det er nevnt av Skyliner at Rovos Airs CV340 er lakkert i Swissair-farger "før ferry til Europa".

Er det noen som vet noe mer om dette?

Det dukket opp mer info om dette på Skyliner, også om Rovos' andre CV340, ZS-ARV:



Quote:
Breitling, arguably in collaboration with Super Constellation Flyers Association, will acquire the second Convair 340 of Rovos Air, to arrive in Switzerland during spring in Swissair (basic) livery and to be a welcome guest in the foreseeable future at air shows, with flight enthusiastic members surely to join at a later stage as passenger. This means that both Rovos Air Convair 340s have found a new home with the world's only Super Constellations operators. Its counterpart, ZS-ARV was ferried by the Historical Aircraft Restoration Society to Wollongong - not far from Sydney - in August 2016.

Här en tidigare bild av maskinen , jag har tillsammans med Tommy Lakmaker besökt Davis-Monthan Air Force Base några gånger och såg då C-131D c/n 215 54-2813. Bilden tog Tommy 14 november 1987 efter det att USAF/New York Air National Guard tagit den ur trafik. Själv har jag ju några tusen timmar Convair i logboken och minns ännu hur vi före take-off sa "62 wet, 60 dry, check lights out, water pressure normal" !
