All Nippon and JAL were the only airlines to order the shorter range version of the Boeing 747-400, the -400D (Domestic). The most obvious difference was that it didn't have winglets.
This aircraft was delivered to ANA All Nippon Airways as JA8960 in May-93. It was sold to a lessor a few days after delivery and eventually sold back to ANA in May-05.
The aircraft was in service for 21 years and was permanently retired at Tupelo, MS, USA in Mar-14. It was last noted still at Tupelo in Oct-14 and was subsequently broken up.

One of the last flying Boeing 747-400D models in the World, it was one of the goals on my trip to photograph these rare jewels and I succeeded. These are truly domestic workhorses, and fly high volume domestic routes only. I was able to capture 2 of the remaining 3 aircraft (JA8966 arrived after dark on the far runway). They will all be retired by March 31st, 2014. You can tell the -400D apart from a -400 because these birds do not have winglets.
From the archives: History today! All Nippons 747's were daily visitors in Paris Charles de Gaulle. But they are replaced by 777's nowadays. Here a shot from 2010, the outbound flight to Tokyo Narita overhead The Netherlands.
