Delivered new in November 1957 and sold to Aer Lingus as EI-AOM in November 1966. On 24 March 1968, while en route from Cork (EICK) to Heathrow (EGLL) the aircraft crashed into the Irish Sea following a loss of control. Officially the cause was unknown, but (in the absence of FDR/CVR) circumstantial evidence pointed to a LH tailplane failure followed by an inverted spin.
