HB-IFA, Swissairs first DC-9, was in service with the airline between 1966 and 1968 and then sold to corporate owners. Over 20 years later, the plane was reimported into Switzerland, got its old registration again and flew for Aeroleasing until 1995. The plane had a long life anyway; its last time in the air was in July 2018 when it was ferried as N120NE to Saltillo, Mexico, to be used for spares by Aeronaves TSM. In 2022, it was still there, basically complete. This photo is copyright © Stephan Barth, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
