VH-EAJ
(3) Boeing
707-338C
(c/n 19630)
When Greg Banfield took the above shot at
Mascot on 12 July 1974 VH-EAJ was still wearing
its original name of 'City of Geelong'. It would
be renamed 'City of Broken Hill'
the next year.
His evocative night shot below was taken a couple of
months earlier. In March 1976 it was
sold
to British Caledonian Airlines as G-BDSJ and named 'County of Fife'. It
was then sold to
Uganda Airlines in
1981 becoming 5X-UBC. C/n 19630 was
destroyed when it crashed while
landing in fog at
Rome's Flumicino Airport on 17 October 1988.
