A Google map search of KYIP (perhaps should be renamed KRIP) shows a bunch of Electras lined up with several DC8s - Zantop logo type. Bet they have the information you're after although at the current rate of bankruptcy Zantop may well have gone the way of the dinosaur should the picture not be somewhat recent.

Edit: After a second look, one of the DC8s is a cannibalized TransCon and some of the the Electras are missing engines and props. It would seem that the grim reaper of economic viability has left his mark and that Google has photographed a boneyard.
