Photo Comment

Originally with National and then Air Manila as a passenger aircraft, this Electra owes its colour scheme to the previous operator, Iscargo. While flying for TPI as N4465F on 14.7.90, made emergency landing at Aruba with no brakes, 10deg flaps and limited flight controls after two propellers separated and severely damaged the airframe. Broken up there a few months later
