Photo Comment

Having spent many years making seasonal exchanges between Mount Cook Airline and Dan-Air London (as G-AYYG) it left New Zealand for the final time to arrive arrive in Southend in June 96. It once again took on the reg of G-AYYG in Aug 96 and was then ferried to Exeter for storage. Purchased by Emerald Airways in Nov 96 and converted to freighter configuration. Repainted in Securicor Omega Express livery in Oct 97 and re-reg G-OSOE in Nov 97. Emerald ceased ops in May 2006. Aircraft spent a little time with Janes Aviation the following year and then withdrawn from use.
