Boeing 707-441, manufacturer serial number 17905, was registered as PP-VJA and was VARIG's first jet airliner of the 707 type. It first flew on April 2, 1960, and was accepted on June 7, reaching Rio de Janeiro on June 22, 1960. The 707-441 had Rolls-Royce Conway engines, which gave enough range for the first nonstop Rio to New York flights, in about nine hours, and VARIG used a J in its registrations to mark its jets. RDC Marine bought PP-VJA on April 10, 1979, and it was stored at Houston until it was broken up for spares in July 1990.
