Then in 1981 purchased by La Mancha Aire and flown throughout the Caribbean and South America until 1985. The additional JBM titles stand for Juan B. Millon (later founder of Millonair), to whom the aircraft was leased in 1983. Textures for Tom Gibson's Douglas DC-7C. Repainted by Thorsten Napp and Manfred Meyer.

description=The DC-7C was a complete redesign abandoning the wing of the DC-4 allowing a further substantial increase in fuel and oil capacity. Updated engines gave slightly more power for take off and climb, but since the DC-7C was 17,000lbs heavier than the DC-7B performance was significantly reduced.
