One of two DC-3s on display at the parachute jumping base of the Escuela de Fuerzas Especiales No.9 (hence the "EFE-9" on the fin), along the Pan-American highway north of Latacunga. Neither aircraft could be positively identified because all data plates had been removed, but this one is suggested to be FAE4341, ex PP-ANP. This may have undergone a conversion during its civil years in Brazil in the 1950´s, explaining the pax door.
