Former SE-DBO and OY-KIC was with SAS Scandinavian Airlines System 1969 - 95, save for a one year least to Nordic East Airlink in 1991. It was the last of the ten DC-9-21s (short body of the DC-9-10 and with longer slatted wings of the DC-9-32) built. Leased by Spirit Airlines, Valujet and Allegiant Air registered N127NK until stored at Victorville, CA in January 2003. Saved from the scrapper in 2003, the aircraft was made flyable again and certified for skydiving. It was put into service by Skydive Perris in 2006, but retired in 2013. It's pictured slowly being restored to flight. This photo is copyright © Gary Vincent, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
