First flying in 10.62, this was the first DC-8F Jet Trader to be built. Looking splendid in her red/black livery, like so many standard DC-8s she took up a secondary career in South America when sold to ARCA Colombia (although registered HI-459) in 6.85. After a lease to Andes as HC-BMC, to Zuliana as YV-460C in 10.89 and b/u MIA 9.98

Here on one of many visits to London, originally this DC-8 was N803WA of World Airways (from 3.71) and served the Oman Royal Flight from 1981 to 1993, initially prior to conversion still as a Series 63. Became N874SJ with Southern International and stored at Roswell, NM from 2003, being scrapped after 2007

'Superb' by name, superb by nature. One of my favourite aircraft, now preserved just a couple of miles from where I then lived - great memories of some rides LHR-BRU around the time of this shot, then of seeing her arrive on the shortened runway at Brooklands for the museum on 17.10.96 (lamp posts were temporarily removed specially from the road outside) - the last ever flight of a Vanguard
