The latest sources I've read don't give any info on the airframes' eventual fate.

The latest sources I've read don't give any info on the airframes' eventual fate.

The first question has been posted more than 6 years ago. I'm very curious to know what exactly are your latest sources?
Because my sources say that 42-78770 (XA-KUN) crashed on April 15, 1957 in Merida, Mexico and 42-78774 has been sold to Chile. You are obviously a big internet fan - can't you find this information somewhere?
And BTW if you don't have "any info on the airframes' eventual fate" why do you post at all? Just curious to know...
