Registered N150L when delivered to Bonanza in October 1959, this Fairchild built F-27A was re-registered N750L in 1964. Merged with Air West in March 1968, the airline was bought by Howard Hughes in 1969 and re-named Hughes Air West the following year. Sold to Air Mauritanie as 5T-CJU, Horizon Air acquired the aircraft in May 1984 (N4798W) and converted to an F-27J re-registered N280PH by July. With CATA Linea Aerea as LV-PAD / AZV from 1987. Retired in 1995, parts were be used to re-build F-27 LV-RLB (cn 42), the abandoned fuselage was donated to a technical school in Buenos Aires circa 2005.
