The Dutch vegetable import company J.vd Berg signed a contract with the Ethiopian company Maeso Agricultural Estate to import 150 ton's of paprika and green beans. On 13 January 1979 the first Ethiopian flight touched down on Runway 24 but failed to stop before the runway edge, and ended up to 150 meters further in the soft grass and mud. During the night the remaining fuel was drained from the 707 and the 40 ton's of vegetables had to be unloaded by hand due to the soggy ground. The next morning the 707 was light enough to be towed out of the mud. In the evening the 707 was ferried to EDDF.

This Puma was delivered on 14 January 1979 and registered to Schreiner Airways two days later as PH-SSB

VH-RWY suffered an accident in 1975. The cabin section along with the tail of Cessna 177RG VH-ERJ (damaged by fire in 1976) were cobbled together to make a training aid for fire crews at Port Hedland airport.
