Photo Comment

Placed in store at McCarran in 1980 with a number of her sister-ships, this 1966 DC-8 escaped to Peru as OB-R-1268 for Faucett in 11.83. Noted derelict at LIM 1991 and since scrapped. N8064U alongside had a similar fate, while N8066U at the right is the aircraft nowadays displayed outside the LA Museum of Science in original UA colours
