Photo Comment

VH-EBG is just starting to lift its nose departing runway 16. It joined the Qantas fleet March 1974. -EBG, by then named City of Fremantle, was sold back to Boeing in May 1988 and leased to El Al as 4X-AQX. Four months later it was back in Qantas service on lease as VH-EBG. It left again in May 1989, returning to El Al.
