Originally I-DIRL with Alitalia. It then flew with Turkish Airlines as TC-JCK before joining Top Air in Mar 96. By 1998 the aircraft had been repossessed by Turkish Airlines and stored at Istanbul. The wings and undercarriage were removed in 2004 and reportedly the fuselage was used as a coffee bar in a park. I have seen two entirely different locations mentioned but haven't found any further evidence to confirm this. It may well be that it didn't last long.

Ex-Alitalia I-DIRL. Later TC-IYB, TC-JCK, TC-IYB, Broken up at Istanbul 9/2005
