Photo Comment

At the holding point for a runway 09R departure. One of the last photos I took from that spot before it was lost when an inner fence was put up and Terminal 5 construction started. Delivered to Pan Am as N539PA in 1979. To United as N148UA in 1986 then to Sheikh Khalifa Bin Hamad Al Thani as VR-BAT in 1995 and fitted with a VIP interior. Reregistered as VP-BAT in 1997. He died in 2016 and it was sold in 2018. Reregistered as N7477S in 2019 and stored at Marana, AZ. For sale at VP-BAT.com in 2022.
