Delivered to Delta Air Lines as N4889C in 1957. Sold in 1968. To T&G Aviation in 1982 and used for parts. Destroyed when set on fire by an arsonist in 2020.

When International Air Response (formerly T&G) moved their base of operation from Chandler Memorial to Coolidge Municipal Airport, they scrapped many of the redundant propliners that had been stored on the field. This aircraft was slated to go to a museum but that never happened and the aircraft remains at the airport in 2018, the target of vandals who have covered the fuselage with graffiti.

Thirty-two years after delivery, its still obvious that this airplane once flew for Delta Airlines.

Which nose would you like with your DC-7 sir?
