Pictured in December 1980, TWA 707-131B posed for me as it left the gate. The airline’s -100 series turbofan Boeings lacked the HF radio “stack” antenna atop the tail as they were assigned domestic routes and not part of the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) for call-up use by the military. N16738 was one of the last -131Bs acquired, in 1968.
