Photo Comment

Air Malta began operations April 1, 1974 in partnership with Pakistan International Airlines and two wet leased Boeing 720Bs. As the airline gained autonomy, it purchased three more 720s (adding to the original two). In 1981, Air Malta wet leased three Boeing 737s from Transavia Holland. With these aircraft working out very well, the airline bought three of their own from Boeing. This 737 was the second one, delivered March 31, 1983.
