Ahhh... DC-10!!!

Fleet No: "1235".

Delivered to Korean Air Lines (later Korean Air) in Apr-75 as HL7317, this aircraft served with them for over 20 years until it was traded in to Boeing in Dec-95 and stored. It was sold to Northwest Airlines in Aug-96 as N235NW. It went on to fly with Northwest for another 11 years until it was retired by them in Feb-07 and sold to Wells Fargo Bank Northwest. It was immediately leased to ATA Airlines and was repainted in a hybrid Northwest/ATA livery. It was re-registered as N705TZ in Sep-07. ATA Airlines ceased trading in Apr-08 and the aircraft was returned to Wells Fargo after 33 years in service!. It was stored at Marana, AZ, USA in Apr-08 and later sold to World Airways in Aug-08. However it never returned to service and was broken up at Marana in Mar/Apr-11.
