K25 slide scan. Built 1970 as XA-TAC for Mexicana. BHT TC-JFA 1988, transferred to THY 1989. Avianca HK-3605X 1990, Jetair N434ZV 1992, scrapped Mobile, AL 1995. One of 12 early Non Advanced 727-200's ordered by Mexicana which could be equipped with JATO rockets to avoid payload penalties at hot and high Airports. The Installation needed relocation of some avionics and air condition ducts resulting in the hump on the upper fuslage which the aircaft kept as a distinguishing feature.
