Originally built for Pan Am as N5118V and sold to Loftleidir in May 1960. At some later date the Douglas logo and small registration were replaced by 'TF-LLB' in larger letters and the name Snorri Sturluson was added. It was scrapped after serving in the Biafra Airlift as TF-AAG with Flughjalp in 1969. [The bright highlight below the flight deck suggests this low-light shot was augmented with flash.] This photo was added on 8 February 2022, and has since been viewed 613 times. |
