This 742F was delivered to Flying Tiger Line as N810FT in September 1980 and transferred to Federal Express as N633FE in August 1989, and then to American Inter Island on lease from December 1993. From March 1994 the frame flew with Air Hong Kong as VR-HKO and then to Polar in November 1996. It is pictured here undergoing maintenance at the Polar facility at PIK prior to handover as 9G-MKU to MK Airlines a few months later in October. The plane became G-MKEA in October 2007 and flew with them until storage at Ostend (OST) in April 2010 and then scrapped.
