This 1953 Convair was converted to a 580 in 1968. Pictured while owned by Kelowna Flightcraft and operated as Inter City Air for only a few months; the Convairliner went to Time Air in April 1985. Tragically, the aircraft was lost when it broke up in flight flying freight with Canair Cargo on September 18, 1991.

1956 vintage Convair started out as a 440 for Swissair. Ten years later it was sold to Martin's Air Charter (Martinair) as PH-MAL where it was converted to 640 standard. Imported to the USA in 1971 by Omni International as N640R. The aircraft joined the fleet of the new Zantop International Airlines in 1972 when they bought it in June. It went on to fly with Zantop for the next 25 years.

This fabulous old-timer is pictured about to touch down on rw16R. Honeywell's expertise is found throughout Boeing's airliners; from the APU at the back to the FMC at the front so not surprising they have a facility at PAE where their test aircraft can be seen.

Airlines of South Australia's two Convairs were almost relics in the Ansett group, the last of nine aircraft. The rest had been sold 10 years or more before ASA flew its last Convair service in 1972. -BZF was sold in the US as N102KA but operated in Cambodia. Photographer's name not known.
