Undoubtedly one of the highlights of my enthusiast career was a flight on this fabulous beast out of Krakow, including a beat-up and overshoot of runway 25 which I videoed from the glass nose cone. Originally '51' with the Polish AF in 1966 (although SP-LZB also carried), partial LOT colours through the 70s, seen at LHR 12.77 full c/s and reg to Air Sofia as LZ-SFS 2.95. Leased to Sri Lankan and damaged in cross-fire at CMB 7.01. To Dynami 1.07, ATMA UN-11014 5.07 and United Int'l YU-UID 9.07; stored at Fujirah as EX-154 from 2010
