This folder contains a repaint for the A2A Lockheed L049 Constellation in the colors of L049 YV-C-AME of LAV. L-049 c/n 2081 was delivered new to Linea Aeropostal Venezolana in October 1946 as YV-C-AME "Simon Bolivar". IN 1955, it was sold to Braniff as N2520B who used it until 1958. In 1961, it was forced to land at Santa Cruz, Bolivia while on a smuggling flight from Miami to Uruguay, carrying cigarettes and whiskey. It is still in Santa Cruz, where it seems to be used by a travel agency on the Avenida Uruguay.
Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paint kit by A2A.
