                                    This F-27 was originally built for AVENSA as YV-C-EVQ in 1958.   It went to West Coast
                                    Airlines in 1963 as N2709, and then had a series of US civil registrations until 1975 when it
                                    was sold to the Mexican Navy.  Civilianized again in 1978, it was with the Mexican non-
                                    scheduled airline Aerolineas TransMexico when I saw it at El Paso Airport in July 1981.
                                    Note contrails overflying ELP!      Later reregistered XA-MOR, it was withdrawn from
                                    service in 1989.
