This former DC-8-61 was delivered to United in May 1968. It's pictured shortly after a conversion to a CFM-56 powered DC-8-71 in July 1982. That and a later freighter conversion extended it's operational life to 2012 when it was retired by Air Transport International (N830BX) and stored at Mojave, CA. The aircraft was sold to GRG Aircraft Sales & Leasing in 2014 and reportedly scrapped.
