Photo Comment

In transit through Prestwick, where it spent two nights. Up to this point it had been with 424 Squadron of the Royal Canadian Air Force, which it joined in 1964 when it was 102 (KU) Composite Unit, at Trenton AFB, Ontario. Finally struck off RCAF charge on 14 July 1971. Possibly seen here en route to Tanzania, where it became JW9005 of the Tanzanian Air Force a few days later. In 1979 became N10167 with John Woods Inc. but was ferried via Shoreham to Shannon as 5H-MRQ. Stored at Shannon from 1980, having N3760D applied in 1981, until eventually broken up in 1990.
