Bolivian Commando!

(Copyright Unknown)

TAM-61 is a Bolivian Air Force C-46A Commando (c.n.26671), and is seen here having its two Pratt & Whitney R2800-51 Radial Piston engines maintained at its El Alto - La Paz base, possibly during the early 1970's. It entered service with the FAB's Grupo Aereo de Transporte 71 in December 1969, and served up until 1977 when it was sold on civilian register. GAT-71 is also known as Transporte Aereo Militar, or TAM for short.
