Description: This auction is for a Original 35mm Slide Flash McDonnell Douglas DC-8-55F 5N-ATY CN 45858 LN 274 . Taken in October 1987 . Flash AirlinesFlash Airlines was a private charter airline operating out of Cairo, Egypt that was part of the Flash Group tourism company. The airline operated two Boeing 737-3Q8 aircraft manufactured in 1993 on non-scheduled commercial passenger flights on both international and domestic routes. In 2002, Swiss aviation authorities performed a surprise inspection on SU-ZCF, a Flash Airlines Boeing 737-300. They discovered missing pilot oxygen masks, a lack of oxygen tanks, and inoperable cockpit instruments. The Swiss grounded the aircraft until Flash repaired the plane. Several days later, Switzerland banned Flash. Poland also banned Flash, while tour operators in Norway ceased contracting. In early 2004, SU-ZCF crashed while operating Flash's Flight 604 from Sharm el-Sheikh to Paris via Cairo. The subsequent investigation exposed poor safety measures and pilot disorientation, which led to the demise of Flash. regtypecnln(2cn)enginefleet - nameoperator>contract (lessor/trustee)builtselcalmodeS(24bit)9Q-CANDouglas DC-8-55F45858274JT3D-3B s2Kinshasa Airways1966by 20033C-QRGbought 2001Cargo Plus AviationBLFKEL-AJQbought 9/93Liberia World Airlines5N-ATYbought 4/87Flash Airlines3D-ADVbought 8/85African International AirwaysHC-BJTbought 2/82 Andes AirlinesN789FTleased 9/77 - 2/78Flying TigersG-BSKYbought 2/78IAS Cargo International Aviation ServiceCF-CPTbought 11/67 - 2/78608 Empress of SantiagoCP AirN1509Usubleased 5/67 - 8/67Seaboard WorldN1509Umerged 2/67 Orange liveryBraniffN1509Udd 9/2/66 DouglasPanagra Airways (Pan American - Grace Airways)N1509Uff 7/22/66 as DC-8-55 FDouglas Aircraft Companywithdrawn from use .
