Early production (Line #37) Boeing 707 originally delivered to Continental Airlines as N70774 in May 1959. It later served with the Israeli DFAF as 4X-JYA and 4X-JYB. At the time of the photograph it was owned by Charlotte Aircraft, (hence the CA registration suffix), having been leased to Sky Safari Travel Club. In August 1981 it was sold to Hispaniola Airlines as HI-384, later HI-384HA, and was damaged beyond repair in an undercarriage collapse landing at Miami on 16th December1981 and lingered on there as derelict until it was broken up in 1987.
