Somebody was 'looking' for a flyable DC-6.

This from the other Propliners board:

As far as I know Dave, the DC-6 is scheduled for parting out and is not being refurbished for a buyer. They most likely moved the aircraft so it can be dismantled in a remote area per environmental regulations. If I hear anything else on it, I will be sure to post it.
