This Devon was previously flying for the Royal Navy as XJ350. It went in service in August 1955 and was phased out on 25 March 1981. The Aviodome (now Aviodrome) bought it in November 1982 and painted it in the colors of the PH-MAD. The "real" PH-MAD (cn 04030) joined Martin's Air Charter (now Martinair) on 31 March 1960.
