Ex F-WWEY, delivered to Air Botswana in July 1988. Destroyed on 11th October 1999 at Gaborone-Sir Seretse Khama International Airport (GBE) when a disgruntled Air Botswana Captain who had been grounded for medical reasons, stole the aircraft, flew around for two hours and after failed attempts to negotiate with the company, crashed it into two of the companies other ATRs parked on the apron.
