            Replacing an earlier scanned photo with a better version 11-Mar-18, plus DeNoise AI 13-Jan-23.

Still in basic NWT Air livery with Air Bridge titles.

This aircraft was delivered to Western Airlines as N7143C, a L.188A, in May-61.  It was converted to freighter configuration with a main deck cargo door in Mar-69.

The aircraft was sold to International Jetair Ltd as CF-IJV in Mar-71.  It became C-FIJV at the end of May-74 when Canada introduced the C-Gxxx registration series.  International Jetair was merged into Northwest Territorial Airways in 1976 and the company was later renamed NWT Air (North West Territories).

The aircraft was sold to Air Bridge Carriers in Mar-91 and re-registered G-FIJV in Aug-91.  Air Bridge Carriers was renamed Hunting Cargo Airlines in Aug-92.  It was re-registered EI-HCE in Apr-97.  It was withdrawn from use and stored at East Midlands Airport (UK) in Jun-98.

The aircraft was sold to Atlantic Air Transport as G-FIJV in Sep-98.  The aircraft was permanently retired at Coventry, UK in late 2006 and was finally broken up there in May-13.
