F-BLOZ moves on

This well known Dakota has been resident at Las Ferte Alais for over 40 years. The 1944 built aircraft saw active service in WWII before joining Air France in the late 1940s. Later the Dakota was with the National Center for Telecommunications Studies from which it became a flying museum exhibit in 1980. However, this only last until 1986 after which the Dakota became a static exhibit at La Ferte Alias where I saw it below in June last year. It has now been sold to a new owner in Bellgium and will soon be dismantled for transportation to its new home.
