Looking very nice after being restored at OPF. The aircraft only got as far as Douglas, Georgia on a ferry flight to Alaska in October 2005 when engine problems cut the flight short. Sadly, it was abandoned and the airport sold the aircraft for scrap in June 2017. Seen at Douglas, GA on Jun 18th 2022. Looks to have the 4th engine off and getting repairs
