This ultra rare APSA 990, the second ship off the line, still existed as of Spring 1999. It first flew in 1962 and flew for APSA Peru until it was reposed in 1973.After languishing it Tucson, Arizona until 1979 the airframe was flown to Mojave where it has remained ever since. This 990 almost met it’s demise in a most unusual manner when FOX network began prepping it to be airworthy-only to crash it for a TV special. Fortunately, FOX came to it’s senses and this jet lived.
