PP-YRF  Convair 340-62                        (c/n 200)

                                 

                                    In 1954 REAL-Aerovias Brasil purchased six Convair 340s new from the manufacturer.  PP-YRF
                                    was the last one delivered.  This one and sister ship PP-YRE were bought back by General Dynamics
                                    (as Convair was then) in1960 and retroactively converted to CVAC 440 status.  They were sold to
                                    All Nippon Airways in 1961, this one becoming JA-5085..  PP-YRF eventually gravitated back to
                                    the U.S and is still currently registered as N156JR.
