FLUGFELAG ISLANDS TF-FIM in its 1976 livery

Between 1968 and 1992, FLUGFELAG ISLANDS (ICELANDAIR) operated 5 Fokker F-27 on domestic routes.
In 1977, their paint scheme was altered from the original one, now showing the tail fin in different colours for each ship:
TF-FIK was red, FIJ was ochre, FIP orange, FIN blue and FIM yellow.

A gathering of all 5 aircraft can be found here:

Serial number 10263, later became PH-FGE, and was used by the airline I worked for back then 1992/3 in the parcel/package freight and
occasional passenger charter role. (Having to re-role at 2am in morning was not unheard of). Got type rated on it and sister ships PH-FFF,
and PH-FEY. (All ex Icelandic ,we got them from Fokker)

Flown on it many times.
