Photo Comment

For a few years starting around 2008, Wamena airport became the "Eldorado" for BAE-146 cargo airplanes. That was after the Trigana and Merpati F-27's were phased out and before the Boeing 737's were allowed to land in this remote airport. PK-VTA is a 1984 built airframe and flew in Indonesia as from September 4, 2009. It had previously been registered in the UK as G-5-01, G-DEBN and G-MABR, in the US as N461AP, N568BA and N146AP, in Mexico as XA-RST and in Spain as EC-971 and EC-GEP. Left the Manunggal fleet in early 2014 to become RP-C8538 with Sky Jet Airlines in the Philippines.
