In one morning session, I was able to catch all of the various Pluna colour variations

Last time I was at Aeroparque, the frequent services by Pluna on the airbridge over to Montevideo were all flown by B732s. Now a fleet of colourful CRJs perform the same role

Originally delivered to VASP as PP-SRF in 12.58, this beauty was bought by PLUNA in 11.75 and was preserved airside at one end of the terminal at MVD after withdrawal from service. Later moved and abandoned in another spot away from the terminal; condition increasingly poor but now fortunately saved by the Uruguayan Museum of Aeronautics for restoration in original colours. The livery seen here was current on B737s when the aircraft was put on display, but too late to actually have been carried by Viscounts in service

Amongst Pluna's 13-strong fleet of CRJs there were four main colour themes

PLUNA (Uruguay) Viscount 769D delivered new to the airline in May 1958. Written off at Buenos Aires when over-running the Aeroparque runway five weeks after this photo was taken.

Operated by PLUNA on lease from the Uruguayan Air Force and retaining their T-572 serial.

Pluna's sole heavy coming in for maintenance.
