Seen here crew training soon after becoming the first TriStar to be based in Europe. Unfortunately the 'Halcyon Days' didn't last too long and on 15.8.74 Court Line collapsed. Bought back by Lockheed and eventually became Cathay Pacific's VR-HHV in 1977, staying with them for the next 20 years. After that she had an itinerant career as EI-CNN with Aer Turas, TBG, Kampuchea A/l and Air Scandic, being placed into storage at Abu Dhabi in 7.00 and ultimately scrapped in 11.06

After service with TAC, the former N454T of Flying Tiger Line was sold to Blue Bell Aviation as N104BB. Later became 9U-BHI and then 3C-ZPO. Destroyed at Kinshasa on 14.4.00 when hit by over 100 bullets after an ammunition supply caught fire in a nearby warehouse. Also damaged were CL-44 TN-235 (c/n 37, once G-AZKJ), a Caravelle, 707 and An-28

Looking extremely smart in Air Anglia's livery before the Air UK merger on a crisp winter's day, G-BLGW was originally registered 9M-AML to Malaysian Airlines in 8.63. Became 9V-BAQ when MSA was created in 1.67, then PK-KFG of Nusantara AS in 6.72, finally taking up the British marks in 3.78. Wfu by Air UK at Norwich 5.94 and broken up late the next year

A search on VP-BDE will almost invariably come up with the much later use of the registration on an Aeroflot DC-10F, but here is the first one. Another Qantas original, this was originally their VH-EBE, sold as N793SA in 5.68. Leased to Pacific Western as CF-PWW and seen here after preparation for another lease (Bahamas World also had VP-BDF & BDG). Sold by TAG to Boeing in 4.83 for KC-135 spares reclaimation; remains stored and later b/u at Davis Monthan

A search on VP-BDE will almost invariably come up with the much later use of the registration on an Aeroflot DC-10F, but here is the first one. Another Qantas original, this was originally their VH-EBE, sold as N793SA in 5.68. Leased to Pacific Western as CF-PWW and seen here after preparation for another lease (Bahamas World also had VP-BDF & BDG). Sold by TAG to Boeing in 4.83 for KC-135 spares reclaimation; remains stored and later b/u at Davis Monthan

New off the line to ONA as "Holidayliner Freedom" a year before this photo, this DC-10 was short-lived as she was destroyed by fire after striking a flock of seagulls and overrunning runway 13R at JFK on 12 November 1975 while positioning to Jeddah with 139 ONA employees on board (all escaped safely).
