TJ-ABJ de Havilland D.H.89A Dragon Rapide
(c/n 6749)
This smart looking Rapide went to Air
Jordan in 1952 and is sporting a minuscule tail registration in
the mode of the day. TJ-ABJ was ex
G-AGTN and was one of four or five used on short haul routes
out of Amman. Shortly after
(somewhere around 1953) Jordan decided to get rid of the "Trans"
connotation in its civil registration
letters and used began using JY- in lieu of TJ-. This Rapide was
still in the fleet at the time and
became JY-ABJ.
