Photo Comment

Delivered to the Nigerian Government as 5N-AGY in July 1982, reregistered 5N-FGN in November 1988. Winglets fitted by 2000 and modified to RE Super 27 with two newer engines. Sold as ZS-PVX in July 2007 and then to disgraced fashion designer Peter Nygård as N727PN in late 2017 but not used and stored at Brunswick, GA. Reregistered VQ-BNF but Nygård jailed so remained parked
