Photo Comment

This DC-9 was originally delivered to Hawaiian Airlines in May 1976 as N659HA. It joined Alisarda in May 1981 as HN-IKH and then I-SMEA. Alisarda merged with Universair to become Meridiana in September 1991 and the plane is pictured taxying out to rw18 for departure. The plane left the Meridiana fleet in June 1999 and later joined Aeropostal as YV-10C in August 2001. It was subsequently re-registered YV135T but placed into storage at Caracas (CCS) in March 2010.
