Trans Texas began repainting their aircraft in these markings in late 1968 after an ownership change at the airline. The TTA logo was temporary, and in April 1969 the airline officially became Texas International. This a/c was originally delivered new to Air Canada in January 1966. It was acquired by Texas International in September 1968.

This was the original Douglas DC-9 prototype, registered as N9DC. After all flight testing was complete, TTA bought the a/c and Douglas removed all the test equipment and configured it to a DC-9-14 standard. It was reregistered as N1301T and was the first TTA DC-9. When delivered to TTA on 30 September 1966 it had already logged 579 flight hours. It had a good life, finally retiring in 1991 after operating with multiple owners.
