Entered service in 1959 and based at Moscow. One of the few equipped with navigation aids to permit operations in the West. Transferred to Aeroflot Ukraine in 1971 and was retired in 1979 when airframe life expired. [In the 1960s you could still get up close and personal with airliners at major airports. Experiences like these lads are having is what made many of us have a lifelong obsession with aviation - both at work and play.]

Originally built for Pan Am as N5118V and sold to Loftleidir in May 1960. At some later date the Douglas logo and small registration were replaced by 'TF-LLB' in larger letters and the name Snorri Sturluson was added. It was scrapped after serving in the Biafra Airlift as TF-AAG with Flughjalp in 1969. [The bright highlight below the flight deck suggests this low-light shot was augmented with flash.]

Delivered new in 1959 and scrapped at Gatwick (EGKK) in 2004 after service with Dan-Air London and use as a towing trainer. [Note the high-security fence! Also, on a personal note, the telescope laying beside the bag is a Denhill Pancratic X25-X40 which was a very popular model with spotters back then. You had to mail-order them from a classified advert in the newspaper. I still have mine 60 years later.]
