Early production Fokker Fellowship operated by LTU from April 1969 until bought by Itavia in April 1973 as I-TIDB.

Lockheed L1011s were the first wide bodies for LTU. This 500 was delivered March 14, 1980. In March 1996 it was sold to a leasing company, who added extra emergency exits to allow higher density seating. It has been leased to Rich International (N501GB), Nordic European (SE-DVM) and Novaor (SE-DVX) before American Trans Air (N165AT) bought the aircraft for parts. Registered only for the ferry flight to Victorville, CA, it was picked for parts until finally broken up June 2004.

A one-off Southend visit. Delivered new to LTU in 2.68 and bought by SAT in 5.79 then EAS (F-GFBA) in 3.86. Scrapped at Perpignan by 1998

Delivered to LTU in 2001 and seen here displaying interim colors as LTU was gradually folded into Air Berlin. After serving in Air Berlin colors for ten years, this aircraft was sold to Virgin Atlantic in February 2018, becoming G-VMNK.
