Retired from operational flying in September 1995, shortly after this shot was taken. After a period of storage at Waterkloof it was restored to flight in 1999 for the SAAF Historic Flight becoming ZU-DMD and wearing the famous 'Skydancer' colours of the South African Flag. Problems with spare parts and funding have long since grounded the aircraft but it remains in storage at Hoedspruit.

The SAAF acquired three former Air France Boeing 707s in 1982 primarily for use as tankers by 60 Sqn based at Waterkloof.. Two more were added in 1990 and 1992 and the role of early warning and electronic warfare was added to the units capability. Two of the aircraft were capable of carrying ELINT pods although at the time there was much secrecy surrounding that project and they were seldom seen in public. Latterly the 707s were used more for general transport and humanitarian purposes and the type was finally withdrawn in October 2007. 1419 is now displayed in the SAAF Museum at Swartkop.
