They went to La Urraca in Colombia. One crashed in May 1972, one in November 1973 and the third was broken up in 1982.
The one that survived until 1982 was G APWA. Was on my evening vigil as a spotter at LBA on 11/08/1976 watching the usual Air Anglia etc stuff when 'PWA dropped onto runway 15. First thought seeing it on approach was that it'd be a BMA example filing in for a sick AQ F-27

UK registration but in basic colours of Sadia do Brasil.

Refuelling stop on delivery to BAF,
