This 727 has had 10 different registrations through a varied life, starting with JA8316 in 3.66 when delivered to ANA. Various phases were with finance companies but Air Panama's operation lasted from 3.73 to 5.84, after which acquired by Jet Air (D-AJAA). Briefly used again by Air Panama in 1987 and in 1989 by Toros Air (TC-AJU). Wfu at IST as G-BMUE then at OST as N3211M. Ferried to Oklahoma City 3.92 and now serves as a ground instructional trainer with Metro Tech

These Mexican Fairchilds have tricky histories. This one carried XC-UTD as her alternative identity (hidden behind wing in this view). It was originally destined for the Banco de Mexico as XC-COX in 1962 but not taken up and immediately transferred to the Mexican AF as AP-0204. Converted from F27F to F27J in 1978. In 1987 it became XA-MCJ of Aerocaribe. Partially scrapped at Merida 1993

Seen at her home base not long before painting in the new blue/yellow colours, this was one of three ex-American Airlines 1-11s flown by Bahamasair. Initially re-reistered from N5023 to VP-BDP in 12.73. Bought by Cascade Airways as N217CA in 8.84 and after changing hands frequently, became TG-TJK with Tikal Jets (in International Air Tours c/s, at Bournemouth) in 8.96. B/u at Guatemala City 2.06

Lovely line-up of propliners. Behind are Convairs from Aero B Venezuela and LAGE. The Air-Sea Convair served with them as HB-IMU, having been sold to Altas Corp in Sep 1980 and stored at Miami, still in Air-Sea colours. Sold to Mexico in May 1981 and seen still in service in the late 1990s with AeroCedros at Ensenada as XA-RYV. Wfu and scrapped in the early 2000s.

Formerly used by Fairoaks Aviation Services and Intra (Jersey), this Islander found its way to the Caribbean in 8.75 to take up residence with this Tortola-based carrier established in 1971, its livery a little reminiscent of BOAC

I have another photo of this Convair, from 1971 when she was in service with Iberia as EC-APZ. Delivered to the Spanish flag carrier in 10.59, leased to Lineas Aereas de Guinea Ecuatorial 1972-76 and sold by Atlas Aircraft to Mexico in 1980. Last recorded as stored in poor condition at Houston-Hooks Field having reverted to the Atlas reg N829TA
