Having been British Midland Fokker G-BVJD from December 1994 until May 2005, this was operated by Brit'Air for Air France as F-GPXI until taken on by Naft Airlines in October 2009. Naft Airlines was the former Iranian Air Transport and became Karun Airlines in 2017. It is financed by the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC), a long-time Fokker customer.

Naft Airlines was set up by the retirement fund of the NIOC, the National Iranian Oil Company. This Fokker 100 has the NIOC logo in the tail. The airline was later renamed Karun Airlines. Picture taken from the airplane window taxing out.
