This F.27 was originally intended for Air Zaire but was delivered to East West Airlines as VH-EWW in October 1983. It went to Jersey Euopean in December 1990 as G-JEAF and work began for freighter conversion in August 1994. It then had periods on lease to Star Air (OY-SRD) and Eureka (G-JEAF) before joining BAC Express in September 2000 and a lease to SixCargo in April 2001. BAC Express had a maintenance facility at EDI and probably is the reason for this visit. The plane was bought by Executive Jet Support in August 2009 and later scrapped at Bergamo (BGY).
