Pan Am Jumbo Jet at John F. Kennedy Airport 05/1973

    This is Pan American Boeing 707-321, N791PA (c/n 18715/364), Jet Clipper Fidelity. Clipper Fidelity would continue in operation with Pan Am until the late 1970s, when it was sold to Maverick (under the same registration), and then Turkish Airlines Cargo (THY Cargo) for conversion and use as a freighter (TC-JCC). After THY, it would pass to Bosphorus Air Transport (BHT - Bogazici Hava Tasimaciligi), before going to Golden Star Air Cargo in January 1992 (ST-ALX). Sadly, while flying for Golden Star Air Cargo, this aircraft crashed on Mt. Hymettus (killing all seven on board) while on approach to Athens, Greece (ATH) in March 1992.

    How long did JFK have those rear-door jetways?

    It's not a jumbo. It's a 707-321C

Aircraft Accident

  • TVL1970 said:
    This is actually a photo of an incident which took place on November 2, 2002 at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK / KJFK) in New York. The aircraft is jetBlue A320 (A320-232) N503JB (c/n 1123) "Bluebird" and here it is at rest on Runway 22R after its nose gear failed to deploy properly. The confusion in the caption is understandable, as a similar incident would occur almost three years later when jetBlue A320 N536JB (c/n 1784) "Canyon Blue" made an emergency landing at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on September 21, 2005 with its nose gear wheels jammed perpendicular to its normal deployed position. As in the incident illustrated above, a safe landing was made with no harm coming to any passengers or crew.
