First flying in 10.62, this was the first DC-8F Jet Trader to be built. Looking splendid in her red/black livery, like so many standard DC-8s she took up a secondary career in South America when sold to ARCA Colombia (although registered HI-459) in 6.85. After a lease to Andes as HC-BMC, to Zuliana as YV-460C in 10.89 and b/u MIA 9.98

These Mexican Fairchilds have tricky histories. This one carried XC-UTD as her alternative identity (hidden behind wing in this view). It was originally destined for the Banco de Mexico as XC-COX in 1962 but not taken up and immediately transferred to the Mexican AF as AP-0204. Converted from F27F to F27J in 1978. In 1987 it became XA-MCJ of Aerocaribe. Partially scrapped at Merida 1993

Sadly being broken up with the mighty Kuznetsov turboprops lying on the ground. This amazing machine was first registered in 5.61 and was operated jointly with JAL into Western Europe during 1967 in a 105-seat configuration, reverting to 220 in 1969. Wfu 1976 and preserved at the VARZ400 rework facility being used as a classroom for a time prior to this unfortunate demise

In contrast to her camouflaged sister-Troopship TAM-93 which was wfu at the time, this one was active and smartly attired in the civil-style c/s. Transferred to the mainline Fuerza Aerea Boliviana in late '94 and re-serialled with the FAB prefix two years later. Had various periods of storage, but crash-landed on a road while in service between Guayaramerin and Trinidad after problems with no.1 engine on 23.7.08, causing substantial damage
