Photo Comment
This 1962 Gulfstream 1 was delivered to Kerr McGee Oil. Winn-Dixie Stores, who own 500 grocery stores in the South east US, bought it in 1967. First registered N18N, it was re-registered N80R as pictured with their Winn-Dixie Montgomery affiliate in 1971. Last leased to Helitaxi Colombia in 1987, the aircraft was caught in the 1989 US invasion of Panama where it was damaged beyond economic repair. Sold to Dodson International Parts and moved to Rantoul, KS, parts of the fuselage remain in their storage yard.
