This DC-8 was originally delivered to SAS as SE-DBD in April 1965. It went on to fly with Swissair, Scanair, TAE (EC-DIH) and ONA (N916R) before joining Icelandair in May 1982. it is pictured pushing back to depart home to Keflavik (KEF). In June 1988 it was converted to a freighter and flew with Kabo Air (5N-AWE) and MK Airlines (5N-MKE) amongst other. The plane may even still be current with the Congo AF as 9T-TCN.
