This has an early example of the gravel runway kit as indicated by the modified nose gear and deflector tubes on the engine intakes of this Boeing 737. Only two months old when snapped here, 'TAN changed hands several times, ending up in Indonesia where it was damaged beyond repair in a hard landing in 2005. For some reason I did not upload this when I first joined AH. Maybe I thought it was over-represented. However Flightradar24 published this photo on 15Aug25 imbedded in an article called 'Canada's 737-200s: keeping the classics alive' and credited to JetPhotos - Tim Martin Collection. This is false since I have no account with JP so it must be a (c) trick of some kind. Result is I decided to redress the balance and add it to AH.
