Photo Comment

Originally N7585A with American Airlines and N703PC Ports of Call. Like most 707s it had quite a varied life operating with quite a number of airlines. It eventually wound up with New Gomair in 2002 as 9XR-IS and was w/o on approach to Bangui, Central African Republic, 4 Jul 2002. The aircraft had developed a technical problem and the crew elected to divert to Bangui. Apparently there may have been a miscalculation with the amount of fuel dumped and it ran out of fuel on final.
