Photo Comment

Looking as if it might be ready to be scrapped. On the contrary, it continued to operate for at least another 15 years! Stayed with Rich until Jan 86 when it joined F A Conner Aviation. In Sep 91 it went to Namibia Commercial Aviation as V5-NCC. Leased to Transair Cargo Jan 94 to Jan 95 as 9Q-CJP and then returning to NCA. To Filair as 9Q-CZU Dec 96. Noted as being broken up at Kinshasa in Jan 98.
