Photo Comment

Delivered as 5-132, then became the second 5-126 and registered as shown on 1 September 1976. Another Iranian C-130 with this serial, assumed to be fake, crashed near Shiraz 18 days later. The Falcon 50 is EP-TFA, c/n 101, that came from Iraqi Airways and was 5-9012 with the IRIAF. At the photo date it was operated on government duties by Saha Air.
