Photo Comment

Viscount N7458 was delivered to Capital Airlines in December 1956. Capital was merged into United Airline in 1961 and this aircraft was sold in 1969 as the last of the Viscounts were withdrawn. It flew once again with Aerosierra De Durango as XA-COT 1973 -78. Sold to Go Transportation in 1981, it was stored at Tucson, AZ and used for parts until broken up in 1989. The nose section was saved and is displayed at the Wings of History Air Museum in San Martin, CA.
