Photo Comment

Delivered to the Flying Tiger Line October 22, 1968, this infrequent visitor to Vancouver went to Cammacorp for conversion to CFM powered DC-8-73 that took place between August and October 1984. It was sold to German Cargo (later Lufthansa Cargo) to become D-ADUA after conversion. Flying in the USA after August 1996 as N603AL for several freight companies, it was stored at Mojave, CA in 2012.
