Information from flickr - thanks to George Hamlin:
Originally intended for Eastern Airlines, and delivered to TWA on October 22, 1970. It's TWA career was shortened by the 1973-74 fuel crisis and economic downturn; the aircraft was stored in January 1975, and subsequently converted to freighter, and sold to the Imperial Iranian Air Force in May 1975.
Still active in 2020 with IRIAF.
