Photo Comment

Initially registered to Atlantis Als as D-ADIZ in May 1971, this machine became N806WA of World Aws, undergoing several leases in that guise until becoming N921R of O.N.A. in January 1983. It went on a number of leases to various airlines between then and 1985 (including the one photographed at EINN) when it transferred to Emery. It flew with that airlines and Murray Air until 2008, later transferring to National Als before b/u in 2011.
