                                                 VH-INW was the second of the ex-National Airlines machines purchased in 1953.  This one
                                                 was previously N90894.  The nice air to air shot below (# 2) is from is the Civil Aviation Hist-

                                                 ANA service.  Like sister ship VH-INV, it was sold off to Transit Equipment Corp in 1960, a
                                                 broker who sold it to Nicaragua's national carrier LANICA as AN-AMI.   There it was converted
                                                 (becoming a DC-6F).  It was finally broken up in Miami (where it began its working life) whilst
                                                 registered YS-03C to Aerolineas El Salvador
