Photo Comment

This ATP was delivered to Air Wisconsin in January 1990, operated on behalf of United Express but eventually stored at Kingman (IGM) in February 2000. It was rescued from the desert by West Air Sweden, converted to a freighter and registered SE-LHX. Over the next years the plane alternated between West Air Sweden and Wet Air Europe before final retirement and storage at Ronaldsway (IOM) in June 2015. Happily the frame was subsequently sold to the 'ATP Preservation Project' in August 2018 for preservation in Manx Airlines colours
