Photo Comment

Special paint scheme by Alexander Calder. "Flying Colors of South America". It was evening so the light was not brilliant but I had to take a shot of this beauty. Delivered new to Braniff as N1805 on 29 Jun 1967. To Rich International on 31 Oct 1983. WFU at Miami by 07 Nov 1997. Scrapped probably in 2000.
