Photo Comment

Having arrived at Southend in late 1980 carrying ex-Wien colours, this FH-227 had just been rolled out after overhaul and respray by BAF. She was originally Mohawk's N7819M from 5.67 and returned to Alaska as N4716Z with Aleutian Air in 1.84. Used by University Athletic Assoc (N101FG) from 1993-99, she wound up with Atlantic Air as HR-ASK; was at Opa-locka during 2004 for u/c repairs but too much corrosion; ferried back to La Ceiba and wfu (reported derelict and engineless in 2007). Believed scrapped at Opa-locka
