Ex Air Mali TZ-ADS, registered to Corse Air Aug 1983 and transferred to Air Caledonie Dec 1984. Went to Aero France March 1990

Aero France was founded in 1978 but operated smaller aircraft until their first Caravelle was delivered in Apr 89. This one was acquired in Mar 90. The airline was reported to have ceased operations in 1991.

Leased by the Swiss airline CTA for the summer of 1981, in this transitional livery.

F-GEPC represented a welcome return of the Caravelle to Australian skies after an absence of 20 years. In the 1960s, UTA operated one over a similar network to Air Calédonie and from the same base, Noumea.

F-GEPC flew with Air Calédonie International from December 1984 to December 1988. It was the second and final time Caravelles were used on regular services into Australia. UTA operated one (F-BNRA) in the 1960s, also from Noumea.
