PH-DTA "Johann Sebastian Bach"
McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30
46550 / 46
KLM Royal Dutch Airlines
Information from airhistory.net - thanks to Gary Vincent:
This first DC-10 built for KLM was the second one delivered to the airline March 15, 1974. As the DC-10-30 prototype, McDonnell Douglas utilized the aircraft from its first flight on June 21, 1972 for developing and demonstrating the longer range international version of the DC-10. A short lease to African Safari Airways in June 1994 preceded the aircraft's return to McDonnell Douglas (N525MD). Later with Krasnoyarsk Airlines until sold to Continental Airlines in October 1997 as N12089, it was stored at Greenwood, MS in April 2001 and broken up.
