EC-CAK was noted at Riem on 9 June 1973, possibly the precise date for this shot. Note the JAT VW Beetle and Caravelle in the background. Iberia B727s were occasionally seen at Riem, but no regularly.

 

Information from airhistory.net - thanks to Paul Seymour:

Delivered to Iberia as EC-CAK in 1972. To Viasa as YV-126C in 1992. Stored at Caracas after Viasa ceased operations in 1997. Back to Iberia as EC-GSX in 1998 and stored at Opa Locka, Florida. Scrapped in 2001.
