Boeing 720B Demolition

N720JR is/was a VIP bird. Anyone know if it's still flying or in flyable condition or where she may be?

She was last seen parked at Malta International Airport in a remote location and probably not airworthy now. She has been there since Mar 11, 2004. You can visit airliners.net and do a search for the 720 and put N720JR in keywords to find the images of her.

Thanks, I've seen her there in a number of shots. I probably spend a bit too much time there, in fact...

I thought I had seen a photo dated in 2005, but it may have been of N720H, or maybe that was when the photo was posted as opposed to taken.

I occasionally find myself in that part of the world - love to have a chance to visit!

To me the saddest ending to a 720, was N1R. It was the Dodgers' airplane back in the 70's and 80's. I had a change to fly in it a couple of times. Last time I saw it was in pieces in the Arizona dessert.
