First flight 8.June 1976 at Renton, delivered new to TEA who flew it until 1988, though many leases to others, wfu in 2006, and probably broken up by now. TEA was a rare visitor at FBU, I was allowed to go take this photo through an open door in the Fire Station. Please note the two SAS DC-9s in left corner, there is one not repainted yet.
