Owned by Kalitta at the time. In 1988 it was operating for TACA International Airlines as N33VX when it was written off some 50Km south of destination, New Orleans LA. 20 Jul 88. Taken from ASN is the following account: After a 4,3 hour flight (with fuel for 7 hours on board) the no. 1, 2 and 3 engines lost power. During an emergency landing, the landing gear struck a levee, the wing hit the ground and the aircraft struck a drainage ditch. Fuel was lost due to an open drain valve inside the no. 4 engine nacelle.

I don't know what the highly polished nose section was about. Perhaps it was the beginning of an intention to polishing the entire fuselage like that.
