München-Riem
August 1987
5Y-ZEB
McDonnell Douglas DC-8-63
46122/506
African Safari Airways
5Y-ZEB is taxiing to runway 25 for take-off. As PH-DEL with KLM, this DC-8-63 was seen at Riem almost every year between 1972 and 1979, sometimes several times a year, and appearing in Philippine Airlines colours on 3 May 1974, 21 May 1975 and 5 January 1975. I also have a report that she overran the runway here on 21 August 1976 (no further details known). Later in the 1980s, the airframe made a return as 5Y-ZEB with African Safari.
