Some of you might recall I mentioned the possibility of a very unique visitor coming to the region in a few days. I said I would post actually information when I had more.


The President of Paraguay is supposed to meet with Bush next week. I was hoping that the 707-300 would come up. I was troubled by the lack of recent photos. I found out from someone in Paraguay who has detailed information about the 707 that the plane - "although flyable FAP-01 is not in safe flying condition and is currently not flying". It no longer is the Presidential or Soccer aircraft. Its is expected to be sold to Brazilian Airline soon.

A BSK 737-800 flew from TJSJ-KADW today. I have a feeling this was the flight.

Hey Senga,

thanks for the update! This would have been the catch of the decade, but such is life.

NP, Omar,
With each passing year we lose more and more of these old schoolers. What a Travesty.
