This aircraft was built as a Douglas DC-8-61 also known as DC-8 Super
61. Due to the legislation for aircraft noise standards the DC-8 super
series needed noise reduction modifications. In 1977 Cammacorp was
founded as programme manager for the project to re-engine the types
with CFM56 turbofan engines. Cammacorp contractors were McDonnell
Douglas, Air Canada, Delta Air Lines and UTA, who all performed the
conversions. After the conversion the DC-8-61, -62 and -63 became the
DC-8-71, -72 and -73, or |
