I took this photo in the year 1951 in Nashville , Tennessee

                                 This is Buford J. an agent in BNA .  HE is loading a Convair 240.

                           I Randy Foster was a A&E nechanic seeing the aircraft through to Chicago..

The Convair CV-240 is an American airliner produced by Convair from 1947 to 1954, initially as a possible replacement of the ubiquitous Douglas DC-3. Featuring a more modern design with cabin pressurization, the 240 series was able to make some inroads as a commercial airliner and also had a long development cycle which resulted in various civil and military variants. Although reduced in numbers through attrition, the "Convairliners" in various forms continue to fly into the 21st century.[1]
