When AirCal leased this 737 in March 1986 it was already 18 years old, having flown with NAC National Airways Corporation / Air New Zealand as ZK-NAE from September 1968. American Airlines kept the 737 in their fleet when it merged AirCal in July 1987 before returning it to the lessor in 1991. Stored at Phoenix, Avmark Aviation leased the aircraft in September 1992. Re-named Transtar Airlines in January 1993, the company closed it's doors July 31, 1993. Stored, this time in Roswell, NM, the aircraft was sold to West Jet Airlines in 1997 as a source of spare parts and was scrapped in Roswell.
