Was going to do this one when I was with HJG before but I simply dont have the time. Anyone hip to doing this ole scheme, just like the one on the 707 that was just uploaded.

Now for the ICX birdie, two variations on this one out of a possibility of three, which I cant locate just yet. The third scheme was with a blue stripe, white fuselage and blue tail with White ICX lettering. I worked this plane many times while stationed at UAM/PGUA back in the early 90s, we had Space A pax in the back and cargo up front. :

Interstate DC8s
Here's a rare one that I could not find until now. Back in the late 1980s Interstate Airlines had a contract hauling cargo from McGuire AFB, NJ/ KWRI to USAFE bases in Europe as well as Iceland and Greenland. We'd get this one almost every day, I believe it originated at Norfolk NAS/ KNGU, then we'd get her and turn it back out an hour or so later. These flights supported the US Navy and NATO naval forces out of Iceland quite a bit. It was similar in scope to the way the old LOGAIR operation was run inside the CONUS, just a different theater and customer.

They were a rather busy little outfit, a few 8's in their employ, a few 727C's and an L-188 Electra like these:
