SU-AZY

Airbus A300B4-203

025

EgyptAir

 

SU-AZY has just landed on Riem’s runway 25 and is leaving the runway via the end. The airframe would return to Riem as D-AHLZ with Hapag-Lloyd in the early 1980s and with Condor in August 1985.

 

Information from flickr - thanks to Guido Allieri (slightly adapted):

Airbus A300B4-203 c/n 25 was delivered new to Bavaria Germanair as D-AMAZ in May 1977 for immediate leasing to Egyptair as SU-AZY. It returned to Germany to Hapag Lloyd in November 1982 as D-AHLZ. During the next years it was also shortly leased to Kuwait Airways, Capitol Air, Air Jamaica and Condor. Acquired by PIA Pakistan as AP-BCP in April 1986, the aircraft was lost on 28 September 1992 near Teenpane/Bhatte Dande, Kathmandu, Nepal, when it impacted a moutainside in bad weather (167 fatalities).
