VH-RMD  Boeing 727-177                                           (c/n 18844)

                              

                                  Greg Banfield captured -RMD departing Mascot on 27 February 1977.   Hard to believe that was
                                  35 years ago now (2012).    It was delivered to the airline in August of 1965.   In August of 1969
                                  it was the first 727 to acquire the (then) new 'Ansett Airlines of Australia' titling and livery.   Sold by
                                  Ansett Transport Industries in July 1979, it was acquired (via brokers International Air Leases) by
                                  Transbrasil Linhas Aereas as PT-TCC.   A decade later, in December 1989 it went to Corsair, Inc
                                  as N133CA.  In the 1990s it was leased to various Peruvian outfits and was noted as late as 2005
                                  in poor condition stored in Lima.  It apparently never did receive an OB- rego.
