The most graceful airliner ever. This example visited Flying Legends 1998 but did not land. It has since been grounded and preserved in Korea but two of the engines were given to the Aviodrome to assist in returning their aircraft, N749NL to the skies. Inexplicably, though that aircraft could now fly it has been grounded due to a management decision. Scanned from 35 mm negative film.
