The Douglas C-118B was the station aircraft for NAS Keflavik for a long time and at least four different aircraft served in this role before being replaced by the current Lockheep UP-3A Orion. Here 131592 is taking off from runway 29.

A photo from AMARC taken on Valentine's Day 1987, this was a view of some of the military propliners stored at AMARC. I think the aircraft in the foreground is a former USN C-118B while further behind are former USAF and USN C-131 Samaritan models.

Still wearing the markings of her last operational unit - Naval Air Facility, Keflavik, Iceland - this Liftmaster was retired to MASDC in Sept 1984. She reverted to the civil register in 1989 and is now recorded as N4163Q.

Photographed in February 1987 this C-118B Bu.No 131597 was in excellent condition. Her "JS" code indicates that her last operator was VR-46. When released from AMARC she became N1597F and in 1993 was destroyed in the Antarctic at Patriot Hills.
