This mighty A300 first flew on January 29,1981. The Airbus was first operated by Singapore Airlines as 9V-STC (until 1985). One year later it was acquired by Continental Airlines who flew the bird until the mid-90s (first as N968C, then N13974). It retained the latter registration during its first duty as a freighter with Express.net Airlines (2002 until 2004). In 2004 the A300 was embedded into Turkish cargo airline's fleet MNG, as TC-MNN. Since August 2008 it has been registered to Slovenian operator Solinair (S5-ABS).
