Photo Comment

On delivery to Papua New Guinea. Became P2-MCA soon after this photo was taken. Airline founded in 1966 as Yung Shing Airlines, and renamed Formosa Airlines in 1987. This aircraft carries western Formosa Airlines titles, but the Chinese titles 永興航空公司 (right-to-left on this side) are those of the old name Yung Shing Airlines.
