Great detective work! Thanks for the all the effort. I have wondered about the identity of that DC-6 for years.

Thanks for the info on this aircraft...much appreciated. It backs up what I was beginning to suspect was its identity!

N888DG when operating for Universal Airlines in Detroit area, that's my very best judgement.. used to see it in mid/late 80's at Paine Field WA...also, see Propliner magazine issue 119 page 23 for photo and page 22 for info Sean

Boy...that tail logo sure is distinctive. It looks native American to me. I'm searching, but no luck yet!
