Anybody seen a DC-8 in Angola

[sublimaze]

Folks, i am searching for some information on a DC-8, apparently parked in Angola. Some technical crew from the USA was ordered to check the plane about 3 weeks ago. Wonder if the plane is already gone or if they experience some problems.

Any help greatly appreciated !

PM if you like.

There was one nosed into one of the hangars at Luanda on 5/27 & 5/28. Had script on the side that said something like "stage 3".

Hmm, that might be it. Any idea if it was N-registered and which company ?

That sounds like an old Fine Air bird. Some of thiers had that on the side.

Don't know-I seem to recall a N#-but not from this last sighting. I saw 2 of them there back in November and I think they both had N#'s.
