K25 slide scan. Built 1959 as ZK-TEA for TEAL, renamed Air New Zealand 1965. Flamingo Airlines N31231 1972. Fred Olsen LN-FOI 1973 after freighter conversion. Withdrawn Coventry 1991 for part out and scrap. The cockpit of an Electra was so wide that each pilot had his own set of throttles. Having unloaded its cargo of flowers the aircraft is just having the chocks removed while the foreman (there were no "supervisors" those days) performs a final check.
