München-Riem
July 1972

SU-ALL
De Havilland D.H. 106 Comet 4C
6454
EgyptAir

SU-ALL is taxiing to runway 25 for take-off. It wears basic United Arab Airlines colours ("Egyptian Airlines" instead of the registration on the tail, no "U.A.A." lettering on the wing tanks). SU-ALL later received full new EgyptAir colours and was seen in these at Riem on 6 July 1973 and 5 October 1973.

United Arab Airlines started once-weekly scheduled CAI-ATH-MUC services using De Havilland Comets on 4 May 1962. UAA and later EgyptAir regularly used Comets on the Riem services until 1973. The last one noted at the airport was SU-ALM on 12 March 1976 (it substituted for the usual B707).

United Arab Airlines / EgyptAir lost as many as 5 of 9 Comet 4Cs it operated in accidents, one of them at Riem (SU-ALE on 10 February 1970).

SU-ALL was delivered to United Arab Airlines in 1961 and sold to Dan-Air London for parts in October 1976. The aircraft was not re-registered but broken up on site in Cairo in October 1976. (Source: cometra.uk)
