Delivered new to Swissair in 1997 as HB-IOG. Became F-GYAO with Air Méditerranée in 2002. In January 2012 became SX-BHS, operated by Hermes Airlines on behalf of Air Méditerranée. In 2014 leased by Hermes to Daallo Airlines. On 2 February 2016, a cabin laptop bomb exploded on the climbout from Mogadishu, Somalia, blowing a large hole in the fuselage. A safe emergency return landing was made with 80 passenger and crew survivors. The only fatality was the ejected holder of the laptop. Subsequently transferred unpressurised, low level to storage at Amman, Jordan. This photo is copyright © David A. Montgomery, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
