This 727 was originally delivered to THY in October 1976 as TC-JBM. It went to Top Air in March 1996 and is pictured here taxying to a remote after arriving from Turkey. It then went to Istanbul Airlines followed by Air Memphis before ending up in South Africa in March 2003 with Inter-Air as ZS-IJS. The frame was registered 3D-ITC in February 2004, however, whilst at Polokwane (PTG / FAPP) in November 2007 awaiting maintenance, it was hit by a mini-tornado and damaged after colliding with other aircraft. It is now stored/wfu there. This photo is copyright © Alastair T. Gardiner, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
