This aircraft was delivered to Air Malta as 9H-ABC in Mar-83. It was sold to British Aerospace in Dec-94 in part-exchange for B.Ae 146-RJ70's. British Aerospace immediately sold it to a leasing company who leased it to Air New Zealand as ZK-NAG later that month.
It returned to the lessor in Dec-95 when it was immediately leased to TEA Cyprus (Trans European Airways) as 5B-DBF. TEA Cyprus wet-leased the aircraft to Pacific Airlines (Asia) the following day. It returned to TEA Cyprus in May-97 and was wet-leased to Air Afrique five days later.
It was returned to TEA Cyprus in Dec-97 and returned to the lessor in Feb-98. It was leased to Winair as N118RW the same month. Winair bought it in Mar-98 but apparently didn't keep up the payments as it was repossessed by the lessor in Jun-99.
In Jul-99 the aircraft was leased to Frontier Airlines. The registration N276FL was reserved by Frontier but wasn't used. It returned to the lessor in Oct-03 and was stored until May-04 when it was leased to Atlantic Airlines de Honduras as HR-ATN. The aircraft was permanently retired at La Ceiba, Honduras in mid 2008.
