Luxair, B.707-373C-H, LX-LGV
This aircraft was originally delivered to Aer Lingus as EI-AMW on 12th June 1964, being their first B.707-348. It finished service with Aer Lingus in June 1972, when it went to Luxair.
Regrettably it ended its days on 26th January 1982 when it was attacked by an Iraqi or Israeli fighter aircraft whilst flying a cargo of military supplies from Libya to Damascus. It managed to land at Damascus but was considered beyond repair. It was the operating with Alyemda, as 7O-ACJ having been sold to them in May 1979 from Air Algerie.
