One of two 747s ordered by Braniff International in 1969 for new Pacific routes expected to be awarded to the airline by the US Civil Aeronautics Board. When that award only allowed flights to Hawaii, this aircraft was traded back to Boeing for 727s before delivery. First flight March 21, 1971, it was stored at Wichita, KS until Wardair bought it as their first wide body. It was delivered March 23, 1973 and in the fleet until the airline was bought by Canadian Airlines in 1989.

Jumbos were never widely used by Delta until much more recently as a result of the Northwest takeover, but they could be seen on Heathrow schedules for a short period back in the Seventies. And they will have the distinction of being the last US airline to operate them on passenger services. N9900, seen here taking off from runway 10R in September 1974, was a 1971-build Srs 100 converted to a freighter in 1977. Went to Flying Tigers as N805FT being taken over by FedEx as N625FE; ended up as Kalitta's N709CK and and scrapped at Oscoda, MI (the old Wurtsmith AFB) in 2015

Lionair operated a series of Caribbean charters from Manchester and Gatwick in 1988/89 for Airtours with this ex-Pan Am 747 using the Orionair AOC and crews, along with LX-FCV. Not long before going out of business, Orionair operated a third 747 in 1989 (N751PA) but that quickly gained a notorious reputation for reliability on UK services. LX-GCV was originally N770PA and joined Corse Air as F-GKLJ in 6.91. Stored at Chateauroux and b/u by 2002
