slide taken by Norbert Kröpfl. - Besides four Fairchild F-27s operating for Saudia, there were three different corporate F-27s active with Saudian registrations. HZ-BOF came as a private company aircraft from the US in 1975 and stayed until 1983. In its final years, it was pressed into airline service, first with Britt Airways / Continental Express, and then with Aerocaribe in Mexico. The turboprop was last noted derelict at Cozumel in 2003.
