This NAC frame was being leased for a short period by sister company Aloha Air Cargo. The aircraft was originally delivered to Piedmont in September 1985 as N309P, and later flew with USAir as N582US, and America West as N325AW, before being converted to freighter configuration in 2007. It then flew with TNT as OO-TNJ, and Bluebird Air Cargo as TF-BBI, before going to NAC in June 2012.

Afternoon arrival from HNL on another beautiful "wintery" day in Kaua'i. The name "Hoku Ao" means morning star. This aircraft was withdrawn from the Aloha Cargo fleet in the autumn of 2016 along with its two sister ships.

After flying with Delta Air Lines and Delta Express for many years, this 737-200 was leased by Aloha Air Cargo for eighteen months (August 2013-February 2015) from Northern Air Cargo, for which it still flew until 2018, when it was sold to Chrono Aviation.
