Photographed just after arrival at Eagle Farm. This aircraft is now on display at The Queensland Air Museum ( QAM ) situated at the Caloundra Airport north of Brisbane.

DQ-FDK was sold in New Zealand as ZK-FQK in March 1996.

VH-EEI was leased by Qantas and operated on behalf of Air Pacific from April 1988. The complexities of aircraft leasing and tax laws saw it on the Irish register (as EI-CAI) from November 1989 to March 23 1990 when it again became VH-EEI for a few hours. Next stop was Virgin Atlantic as G-VMIA, which operated it until it was withdrawn for scrapping.

Having earlier enjoyed a corporate career flying for the Orinoco Mining Co as YV-O-CFO / YV-P-APZ and before that US Steel Corp as N12500, this Fairchild had pretty much reached the end of its useful life by the time of this photo, being scrapped in 3.90

This is the original Air Pacific. Changed its name to Fiji Air when national carrier Fiji Airways wanted to become Air Pacific. VQ-FBG was sold in 1971 as VH-MKO.

VH-EBK takes another load of holiday makers to Fiji.
