Delivered new in 1956 and here taxiing past an example of its nemesis - The Jet Age. After only 15 years service it was scrapped at Miami (KMIA) as HR-TNM in May 1971. [Seen at EGLL in June 1962, subbing for a Boeing 707.] This photo was added on 4 September 2021, and has since been viewed 454 times. |
