Sold as LN-AKA to Busy Bee of Norway in Mar'86, transferred as such to Netherlines in Apr'90 and returned to Busy Bee in Oct'90. It was withdrawn on 16 Dec'92. Sold as SE-KXV to Sweden Airways in Mar'94 but never taken up. Stayed LN-AKA, to Viking Air in '94 and was stored at Norwich (UK) in '94. Became VT-SSA with Elbee Airlines on 22 Sep'95.
