For many years there was the front section of a DC-8 on the observation deck at EDDF I think it was used as some kind of theater for the airport. My question is what is the history of the jet as I walked by it many times year after year looking for some kind of identification number but is was totally pained over I always wondered who it was delivered to and its history. Can someone please help me with the answer.

With a little more reasearch at airlinesr .net I received my anwser. Here is the information they have C/N 45300/101 DC-8-21 Nose-section is on display at the spectator area. Has worn the following registrations: N8033U United Air Lines, Commercial Air Transport, Bahamas World Airlines, Transports Aerien Centrafricain, TL-AHI Transports Aerien Centrafricain, United African Airlines, 5A-DGK United African Airlines, Jamahiriya Air Transport, WFO & stored, Tripoli, Libya 1984, broken up. Thanks to Erik Frikke for the details. Here is another good link to many photos of this bird in service www.august-euler-museum.de/ae-museum-03.html |
