Built in 1949 as N90947 for American Overseas Airlines which merged into Pan American World Airways in September 1950. Withdrawn by them in 1961, it was sold to Israel Aircraft Industries as 4X-AOD and then to the Israeli Air Force as 4X-FOG in November 1962. The aircraft was converted to a Boeing 377M and re-registered 4X-FPX/098 in February 1964 and made several more visits to Gatwick as such before being finally withdrawn from service in September 1975.
