Taking off on a transatlantic charter flight from Prestwick's Runway 13. Sold by Pacific Western in late 1978. First served with Quantas from 1959 as VH-EBA, one of the shorter-bodied versions of the early B707s which Quantas ordered initially. Fitted with turbofan engines in 1961. More recently restored to flight by the Quantas Foundation Memorial as VH-XBA. This photo is copyright © David A. Montgomery, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
