Information from airhistory.net - thanks to Danny Grew and LRS747:
Ex JA8621 All Nippon Airways and PH-OGB Limburg Airlines. To Air Anglia 31 May 74 as G-BCDO, merged into Air UK January 1980. Damaged beyond repair in an emergency landing at AMS 19 July 1990, ferried to NWI (Norwich) 29 July 1990 and scrapped during 1992.
Additional information from flickr - thanks to Dick Gilbert:
On 19 July 1990 G-BCDO was on a flight from Stansted to Amsterdam when the starboard mainleg failed to lock down. After circling to burn off fuel it landed at 1720 and the leg collapsed. It was made serviceable for a ferry flight back to the Air UK maintenance base at Norwich, but it never flew again and was broken up there in November 1991.
