Photographed lining up on Runway 28R, (as it then was), at London Heathrow in August 1981. It made its last ever Heathrow visit the following month and was sold to TAL Trans Air Link as N867TA, passing in 1986 to the iconic DC-6 operator Northern Air Cargo Inc. of Anchorage, AK. Sadly it was written off in a landing accident at Deadhorse-Alpine Airstrip, AK., in September 2001.
