Photo Comment

This 732 was originally delivered to TEA as OO-TEL in March 1979. At various time over the next years the plane was out on lease with Libyan Airlines El Al (4X-ABL), Rotterdam Airlines (PH-RAL), TEA UK and Air Niugini (both G-BTEB) before joining GB Airways in November 1990. Later the plane went on to fly with EAS, Air Toulouse (both F-GLXG) and Islandflug (TF-ELM) before finally joining Air Caraibes in July 2000. However, its time in the Carribean was short as it was retired and placed into storage at Chateauoux (CHR) in February 2001 and subsequnetly scrapped.
