Photo Comment

Built in 1963 and here being operated by Enterprise Aviation as transport for the heavy metal rock band Metallica. The band name is written just below the flight deck window. Interestingly, another photo shows a second coiled snake was added to the tail by October. Cancelled as destroyed on 10 February 1999, so presumably it was scrapped.
