Must have found something to climb up onto otherwise those bins would have thwarted me completely... in those days before H&S rules went crazy, I could even get a friendly fork-lift driver to help out occasionally with a lift on a pallet! This is the former N8055U of UA which became 5N-AWZ when actually bought by Trans Sahel in 11.86. Then to African International (3D-ADV) in 8.87 and stored at JNB as ZS-PAE, b/u by 2012

Arriving on a MAC flight, this Super 8 later flew for Capitol, Arrow and National, becoming N952R in 5.85 and then N826AX in 7.95 with Airborne Express after service with Emery. After 11.07 operated as 9G-SIM for Johnsons Air out of the UAE. Grounded by the Ghana CAA at the end of 2013 so the airline was looking at another country to register

Starting out with Flying Tigers as N782FT in 9.68, this freighter went to Cargolux in 10.75 as LX-BCV. Seen here on Air India's DEL-JFK freight run via LHR after re-registration. Evergreen took her as N815EV in 7.84 and ten years later she passed to UPS, the EV suffix changing to UP. However she soon passed on to DHL as N806DH was flown in their bright yellow scheme by Astar till stored at Kingman, AZ from 5.12

Quite a rare shot - although this Eight joined FT in 1.87, she continued to fly under the original Trans International registration N4865T until 6.89, but became N402FE with the FedEx take-over in 1.90. To UPS at the end of that year (N803UP), re-reg N155CA 12.09 on lease to National A/l. Stored at Roswell, NM in 2013

Seen in the unfamiliar livery of Trans Ocean two years after my shot at the same place in Scanair colours. The aircraft joined Burlington in 7.90 as a freighter but crashed on approach to Toledo, OH in bad weather on 15.2.92 while performing a cargo flight from Seattle (TT 70,430h)

Placed in store at McCarran in 1980 with a number of her sister-ships, this 1966 DC-8 escaped to Peru as OB-R-1268 for Faucett in 11.83. Noted derelict at LIM 1991 and since scrapped. N8064U alongside had a similar fate, while N8066U at the right is the aircraft nowadays displayed outside the LA Museum of Science in original UA colours

One very old DC-8, delivered to Delta as N803E in 10.59 and later HI-452 (not taken up), HI-595CA and YV-810C, most of the time with Agro Air. Leased by Midas 8.94-5.95 and re-registered N505FB in 10.98; Agro merged into Fine Air 1.01. Stored at Roswell, NM from 2002 and was by quite a margin the oldest DC-8 in flying condition - quite something to think it's been around for 50 years
