First flight for this 707 was August 22, 1968 with delivery to American Airlines eight days later. When American sold their early 707s around 1970, most of the later 323s soldiered on until sold back to Boeing for use as parts in the KC-135 re-engine program. This one had been leased to Global International Airways April 1981 (bought March 1983), but still ended up in the re-engine program after Global went bankrupt.
