Our company Argosy looking in need of a good repaint which it eventually did into Elan colours. This plane did the overnight Shannon service. I got a jump seat flight on it. We had to climb up a ladder to get on the flight deck. On the way to Shannon we had St Elmo's Fire on the wind screen. Delivered to Riddle Airlines as N6502R on 5 Jan 1961. To Capitol Airways 1 Jul 1962 and Zantop Air Transport 1 Sep 1965. To N895U with Universal Airlines on 21 Sep 1966. Sold to Sagittair 28 Feb 1972. Bought by Fields Aircraft Services 28 Mar 1977 as G-BEOZ. To ABC Aug 1979. WFU at EMA Mar 1986 and preserved at EMA Aeropark.
