Photo Comment

This 742F was originally intended for the Iranian AF as 5-8117 but went instaed to Northwest Orient as N630US in September 1983. It flew on for Northwest but was wfu and stored at Pinal Air Park (KMZJ) in March 2008. In October 2010 it was reactivated by Kalitta who flew it to Oscoda (KOSC) presumably as a spares source. The plane was finally scrapped in 2014.
