Delta Airlines was a rare visitor to Toronto, especially with a DC-8, so this evening sighting was most welcome. N805E was delivered to Delta in November 1959 with early Pratt & Whitney JT3C engines. It was later converted to a DC-8-50 with higher by-pass JT3Ds before sold to F B Ayer in 1980. The aircraft was set to go to TAE - Trabajos Aéreos y Enlaces S.A as EC-DKH but was not take up. It was stored at Paris - Charles de Gaulle until scrapped in 1985.

Delivered new (as a series 11) 4th Nov 1959 and sold to FB Ayer May 1980 for onward sale to TAE as EC-DKH but the sale fell through and the aircraft was stored at LFPG for many years and finally scrapped March 1985

Seen with the early full titles leaving the gate at CVG.
