This 757 was originally intended for British Airways but it went instead to Air Europe as G-BRJG in March 1990. It was then leased out to various airlines including; Air Holland (PH-AHN from May1991), Air Aruba (P4-AAA from October 1991), Inter European (G-IEAD from April 1992), Icelandair (the original TF-FIK, from December 1993), Ambassador Airlines (G-SRJG from May 1994), Istanbul Airlines (TC-AJA from April 1995), National (N506NA from February 1999) and finally Avianca from November 2003. This was the end of the line because in November 2009 it was wfu at MIA and scrapped (at CSM?).

Non-standard in that, unusually, the titles were not in red. It was acquired Apr 95 ex G-SRJG Ambassador Airways and, before that, TF-FIK Icelandair; G-IEAD Inter European Airways; Air Aruba P4-AAA; PH-AHN Air Holland and G-BRJG with its first operator Air Europe. It went to National Airlines as N506NA in Feb 99. Broken up Jan 2010.

Originally G-BRJG with Air Europe, it also previously operated with Air Holland (PH-AHN), Air Aruba (P4-AAA), Inter European Airways (G-IEAD) and Icelandair (TF-FIK). After its Ambassador days it further went to Istanbul Airlines (TC-AJA), National Airlines (N506NA) and Avianca (N506NA too). Retired Dec 2009 and B/U shortly after.

Photographed taxying to its assigned gate after arrivng, no doubt, from somewhere with better weather than Amsterdam!

Extremely rare as she was only painted like this for a few days - never delivered to the Portuguese airline and nowadays flies for Avianca as N506NA. Although I took about three rolls they all went quickly and I've often been asked for spares since!
