In close company with G-BAMX (PK-MVW), this was one of eight Vanguards leased or bought by Merpati in the Seventies, four ex-Air Canada and four ex-BEA. Originally CF-TKU to TCA in 11.62, became G-AZNG with Air Holdings in 2.72 and leased to Air Trader (SE-FTI) for the latter half of the year. To PK-MVC 8.73 but officially back to G-AZNG 4.74, then F-BVUY for EAS in 11.74. Bought back by Merpati in 3.81, this time as PK-MVA and stored at JKT from 11.85 (see my 1983 shot), being scrapped by 1994
