First with Rousseau Aviation after being registered as G-AYIR by HS in 1970, this 748 ended its days in Canada with Wasaya. Burnt out when parked after arrival at Sandy Lake Airport, ON for a fuel drop off. Note the custom-fit hangar doors to keep the cold out in this 1988 record. When I shot C-FTTW in the same place two years earlier, it was still in ex-Air Botswana colours

Lionair operated a series of Caribbean charters from Manchester and Gatwick in 1988/89 for Airtours with this ex-Pan Am 747 using the Orionair AOC and crews, along with LX-FCV. Not long before going out of business, Orionair operated a third 747 in 1989 (N751PA) but that quickly gained a notorious reputation for reliability on UK services. LX-GCV was originally N770PA and joined Corse Air as F-GKLJ in 6.91. Stored at Chateauroux and b/u by 2002
