Photo Comment

The Hawaii Express began operations in August 1982 with a single Boeing 747 (N355AS). Flying between Los Angeles and Honolulu, the airline added two DC-10s in May 1983. Former Western Airlines N904WA was leased from ILFC and returned after the short lived carrier suspended operations in December 1983. Later flying with Arrow Air and Air Hawaii, it went to American Airlines for a short time as N167AA. Bought by FedEx in 1999, it was converted to a MD10 -10F. After it's last revenue flight on December 18, 2019, the aircraft was retired to Victorville, CA.
