Ahhh! DC-10!
Ex Laker Airways G-GFAL. BCA Charter & British Caledonian Charter, renamed Cal-Air International and later Novair International.
First flown by McDonnell Douglas in Dec-78 using the test registration N1002D, this aircraft was delivered to Laker Airways in Feb-79 as G-GFAL. Laker Airways ceased operations on 05-Feb-82 and the aircraft was repossessed by Mitsui Leasing.
The Rank Leisure Group and Thomson Holidays had a big summer charter programme with Laker Airways and were suddenly short of capacity. They entered into discussions with British Caledonian Airways and as a result B.Cal and Rank Leisure formed British Caledonian Charter with a 51%/49% holding.
The leases of 2 Laker DC-10-10's were transferred and British Caledonian took delivery of G-GFAL on 22-Feb-82 when it was re-registered G-BZJD. It was transferred to British Caledonian (Charter) Ltd on 01-Mar-82.
The company was renamed Cal Air International Airways in Oct-85. When B.Cal was taken over by British Airways, they didn't want Cal Air (they already had British Airtours which became Caledonian Airways Mk:2) and B.Cal's 51% was sold to the Rank Leisure Group.
Cal Air was renamed Novair International in Dec-88. Rank Leisure closed the company down at the end of Mar-90 (and I was out of a job!). The aircraft was initially stored at Prestwick, Scotland, and later, ferried to Waco, TX, USA in Nov-90 for continued storage.
It was sold to ILFC International Lease Finance Corporation in Nov-92 as N581LF and remained stored at Waco until Feb-94 when was converted into a freighter with a main-deck cargo door and leased to FedEx Federal Express as N10060 in Aug-94.
In Nov-08 it underwent the MD-10 conversion with the MD-11 'glass cockpit' and 2 crew operation. Sadly, this aircraft was finally retired in Jan-21 after an amazing 42 years in service. Updated 14-Sep-22.

LAX is good for seeing and photographing freighters. On this day I saw no fewer than three FedEx MD11Fs and one FedEx MD10F.
N614FE, delivered to Fedex in November ’92, is on final approach for 25R with some haze and coastal mist still lingering before completely clearing up later that afternoon.
It’s always nice to see a beautiful tri-jet greeted with some great light.

FedEx turns 50 in 2023. This Falcon 20 cockpit section, on the floor of the Greenway Aviation Training Center at Memphis, previously was used as a procedures trainer. It belonged to Falcon 20 N990L (s/n 43). It was purchased by FedEx in 1975 for parts after it was damaged in an accident in Grand Prairie, Texas.

I took this photo as the sun was minutes from dropping below the horizon. The winter sunsets here in the Denver area can definitely produce some great "golden hour" light.
