Travolta donates 707-138B to HARS
John Travolta has donated N707JT, his 1964 Boeing 707-138B to HARS, the Historical Aircraft Resotration Society in Illiwarra, Australia. It will be evaluated and repaired for ferrying by a HARS team and flown from Travolta's house in Florida to Albion Park (YWOL) to join their collection in some future date where it will join an airworthy C-121C Constellation. We'll see if the deal includes letting HARS keep the QANTAS livery. John Travolta donates his Boeing 707 to HARS in Albion Park | Illawarra Mercury

This aeroplane reportedly had a nosewheel collapse at Luton on 28 March 1977 when it was operated by Tracinda as N108BN.
Does anyone have any local knowledge of this incident? |
