The CV-640 on the foreground is N861FW which was ex KLM PH-TGD and ex Martinair PH-CGD. The four CV-600's are (I believe) N94224, N74852, N74853 and N74854. The difference in fuselage length between the two Convair types can be clearly seen from this shot. Taken on landing from Maule Lunar Rocket N56308 with the door off, and the sun going down.
