This 747was originally delivered to Qantas as VH-EBI in October 1974. It joined Virgin in May 1991 and is pictured taxying out for departure. In June 2001 the plane went to Kabo Air as 5N-PPP but was withdrawn a year later, stored at Kano (KAN) and subsequently scrapped. This photo is copyright © Alastair T.
