The best photo I could take of this beauty. Preserved inside a farm named "Hacienda PastavÃ" near the city of Otavalo, northern Ecuador. Sadly the owner doesn't allow anyone to enter the property and take photos of the aircraft. Ex- I-DABV (Societa Aerea Mediterranea) and belonged to Saeta as HC-BDS until the 90s when it was bought and transformed as a private cafe/bar. Fake titles "Pastavi Airlines" and paint similar to Iberia's old livery.
