This aircraft was delivered to Monarch Airlines as G-DGDP in Mar-82, it was leased to Pacific Western Airlines as C-FPWE for the winter seasons of Nov-83/May-84, Nov-84/May-85 & Oct-85/Apr-86 before being sold to GECAS as G-DGDP at the end of Apr-86. It was leased to Canadian Pacific Airlines the same day. After a cabin refurbishment and repainting the aircraft entered service as C-FCPN in Jul-86. Canadian Pacific became Canadian Airlines International in Apr-87. The aircraft was sold to Pegasus Leasing in Oct-00 and leased back to CAI. In Apr-01 Canadian Airlines was merged into Air Canada. Air Canada wanted to keep their mainline fleet of Airbus A319's and A320's so in Feb-03 the B737-200's were transferred to Air Canada's new 'low-cost' subsidiary Zip Air. It didn't last and the aircraft was returned to Air Canada and the lessor in Apr-04 as N984PG and stored at Tucson, AZ, USA. It was leased to Aerolineas del Sur, Chile as CC-CJP in Dec-04. Aerolineas del Sur was merged into Air Comet Chile in Aug-07. The aircraft was returned to the lessor as N762SH in Apr-09 and leased to Peruvian Airlines as OB-1956 in Aug-10. It was broken up at Lima, Peru in 2011.
