Taxying out as "Rosenbalm 815", en route from Maastricht to Westover AFB.

My preference is to avoid taking sky shots whenever possible. I like to be able to place the shot to the airport in question, However, some aircraft are worthy of an exception to this rule and the venerable old DC8 is one of them!

Seen here on taxi out from the southern 'Z' apron on the regular JAL cargo run, this was the penultimate DC-8 built, delivered to JAL almost exactly ten years prior to this slide being taken. Sold in 10.83; after serving Zantop and CF Airfreight, in mid-2004 she became ST-UAA of United Arabian and after several more re-registrations, stored at CPT as ZS-YDB after Stars Away ceased ops in 11.12
