I 'found' this on Flightradar flying incognito (no flight #, departure point or destination, reg # etc) mid Europe, it had left Egypt, and flew at 40,000, but was easily identified as it is to my knowledge the only DC8-72CF left flying (two other DC-8 variants exist in the far east AFAIK). I remember when Prestwick had DC-8's every day, SAS, KLM, PanAm, memories.
An aircraft that was well designed and engineered , well built, well cared for and upgraded with CFM engines in the 1980s adding DECADES of use to this magnificent plane! A great plane serving a great humanitarian organization helping disaster victims all over the world regardless of faith!
In May this year, the state of Rio Grande do Sul in Brazil with heavy Rain accumulation for 500 to 700 mm the accumulation flood, elevation nivel of Rivers over at 5.37m normal level. Affecting 2.4 million Peoples. Samaritan's Purse two times flight to assist in the RS state in the route KWIT-SYCJ-SBCF-SBCO with the classics DC8 and more two flights with the 757.
FINNAIR s first of 2 original dash 62 OH-LFR. Believe or not. Incredible airframe. Jan 69 was the inaugural flight from Long Beach to HEL. I own a factory model original miniature. Wunna buy, hit me w an offer (4 figs) O er 🇫🇮
