In April 1973 three Boeing 720s made their way to Rhodesia, circumventing the UN sanctions against the country. VP-YNM was one of these aircraft seen here at Salisbury a few months after arriving with sisterships YNL and YNN after Air Rhodesia clandestinely acquired three of Calair's five 720s. It started its service life with Eastern Air Lines in August 1961. In December 1970 it joined the fleet of short-lived German charter airline Calair.

This T-33 was built under a USAF contract as 51-4033, then transferred new to the USN as TV-2 (T-33B) Bureau Number 126591. When I took this slide it was parked on the Flight Systems, Inc. flight line at Mojave, but I don't know if it was owned by them. It is now part of the Palm Springs Air Museum Collection and is in airworthy condition.
