Information from flickr - thanks to Chris (Heathrow Junkie):
D-ADPO c/n 46595 - McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30 was delivered to Condor in Nov 1979. The aircraft flew with the airline for nearly twenty years before being sold to OMNI Air International as N540AX in 1998. The aircraft was withdrawn for spare parts in 2006 and broken up a few years later.
Information from airhistory.net - thanks to Stephan Barth:
Condor operated DC-10s for 20 years between 1979 and 1999; the airline had three new ones and later in addition two ex-Lufthansa aircraft. D-ADPO was the first one to enter service with Condor, it started with a silver belly, changed to a light grey belly as shown in this picture, followed by a white belly in later years.
