One very old DC-8, delivered to Delta as N803E in 10.59 and later HI-452 (not taken up), HI-595CA and YV-810C, most of the time with Agro Air. Leased by Midas 8.94-5.95 and re-registered N505FB in 10.98; Agro merged into Fine Air 1.01. Stored at Roswell, NM from 2002 and was by quite a margin the oldest DC-8 in flying condition - quite something to think it's been around for 50 years This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
