This Convair was still painted in the colours of Venezuelan company Standard Seafood / Super Shrimp for which it flew, with the Aruban registration P4-SSG, between May 1998 and April 1999. After its Venezuelan adventure the aircraft was taken over by Kestrel and registered as N-8277Q (which was never corrected to N8277Q) as such it flew cargo throughout the Caribbean and Florida. Unfortunatly it was damaged beyond repair after an emergency landing at Saint Thomas on 17 January 2011.
