This 747 leased from Aer Lingus carried a non-standard color scheme. Delivered to EI March 18, 1971, British Airways leased it from March 1976 to May 1981 which included a short transfer to Bristish Caledonian when their DC-10 delivery was delayed. Kabo Air was the last airline to operate the jumbo (5N-AAA), retiring it to Roswell, NM at the end of 2002.
