In the mid-1980s Eastern needed an aircraft with sufficient range for their new Miami-London route, so they bought three ex-Alitalia DC-10s. The service did not last long before it was ceased due to lack of profit, after which they were used mainly on flights to Buenos Aires. This one was ex I-DYNB and was scrapped at Mojave in 2002 as N13067 of Continental

Delivered to AA in 6.62 as N5618 and after a period with MEA, bought by Spantax in 1.72. Looking magnificent in her later colours on what was probably one of the last trips to the UK, this Coronado was eventually set aside at Palma for preservation by the excellent Museo del Aire, but has been under threat of eviction from its site which is on Air Force land. During 2017 major efforts were made by the Salvemos el Coronado de Spantax group to save this significant airframe
