Notes:

Such a great and nostalgic machine seen here abandoned like this is simply heartbreaking! For what it seams, it won't fly again since it was left there rooting and I imagine that the lack of money won't make this on an airworthiness Convair unfortunately. Previously EC-AMR of Iberia and T14-1 of Spanish Air Force, it was owned by an Iberia B747 captain.
