Photo Comment

This is pictured bringing in Sevilla fans for their UEFA cup match against Spurs later that day. It was originally delivered to TranStar in March 1987 as N939MC and then to Continental in September of that year. In August 1993 it was finally registered with a more 'conventional' CO registration, N14879. The plane was placed with Swiftair in March 2006 and withdrawn from the fleet in October 2010, before being scrapped at Madrid (MAD) in March 2012. Note also the two Maxjet 762s in the background.
