1. Title: A Veteran de Havilland DH.104 Dove, N4916V: A Fascinating History This photograph showcases the de Havilland DH.104 Dove, registration number N4916V (msn 04275), affectionately known as CC-CLY. The Dove, a versatile British-designed aircraft, was first built as a DH.104 Dove 1 and delivered on November 16, 1949. The aircraft's history is rich and diverse. After its initial delivery, it was acquired by the Chilean Air Force (Fuerza Aerea de Chile) in 1954. Following its military service, it was purchased by Bankers Life & Casualty Company. Subsequently, it became a part of New World Airways Flight Research Inc. in Mojave, California, between July 19, 1982, and November 27, 1991. During its tenure at New World Airways, the DH.104 Dove underwent significant use in various research projects. However, its registration was eventually cancelled, and it was cannibalised for spare parts at Mojave Air and Space Port. The DH.104 Dove is an iconic aeroplane in the annals of aviation history. Its versatility, durability, and adaptability have made it a beloved aircraft among aviation enthusiasts. This photograph encapsulates the essence of the Dove's storied past, offering a glimpse into its fascinating history. This image is a testament to the rich tapestry of aeronautical transportation and the enduring legacy of the de Havilland DH.104 Dove. It is a poignant reminder of the aircraft's contributions to the world of aviation and its role in shaping the future of flight.
