Owned by Kalitta at the time. In 1988 it was operating for TACA International Airlines as N33VX when it was written off some 50Km south of destination, New Orleans LA. 20 Jul 88. Taken from ASN is the following account: After a 4,3 hour flight (with fuel for 7 hours on board) the no. 1, 2 and 3 engines lost power. During an emergency landing, the landing gear struck a levee, the wing hit the ground and the aircraft struck a drainage ditch. Fuel was lost due to an open drain valve inside the no. 4 engine nacelle.

Acquired Dec 77 from Eastern Air Lines. Eighteen days after the above photo was taken, this aircraft was written off 30 May 84 near Chalkhill PA. It was en route BWI-YIP when an instrument failure caused the crew to lose control. Attempting to recover from an unusual attitude they overstressed the airframe which caused it to break up.

Fourteen years later it would become G-SIXC with Atlantic Cargo/Atlantic Airlines/ Air Atlantique. Stored Coventry UK from 2007. Converted into a nice little cafe/restaurant but sadly it only lasted about 5 years or so. My family and I had a very enjoyable English Breakfast in it.
