Description: a real nostalgic picture with these 'spotters avant la lettre'. It was reregistered to OO-SDA on July 31 1951 and served the airline till 1956 when sold to T.A.I. as "F-BHVA". But during Expo 1958 which was held in Brussels, this airframe was again leased by Sabena for a couple of months.
