Initially intended for Northwest Orient, this DC-8 in fact went to Trans Caribbean as N8780R in 11.61 and then to Eastern in 1.64. Interswede took her for three months (as SE-DCR) in 11.71; she returned to that part of the world with Karair in 6.72. On lease to Cyprus Airways at the time of this shot (pure co-incidence that the last thing I uploaded before this was a Cyprus DC-8), she was wfu at Brussels in 2.85 and scrapped three months later

Bangladesh's national carrier normally used B707s on their flights into Amsterdam, but after a 707 belly-landed at Singapore in April 1980, they were one aircraft short. An Aer Lingus 707 was leased for 6 months, followed by this very nice DC-8, leased from Cargolux in November 1980. It flew into AMS regularly until the summer of 1981.

It's good to see oldies like this one taking off at a modern airport, and the wonderful tail colours are a welcome bonus! In early 2005, this aircraft operated several daily cargo flights into Amsterdam for Ethiopian Airlines. It served with Silverback Cargo until 2010, when it was withdrawn from use and stored at Kigali, Rwanda. It was still there in Sep 2015, current status unknown.
