These aircraft arrived at MAN when one developed a tech fault en-route to Bolivia.
I am having great difficulty tracking one of these down (TAM-41). This serial doesn't show in any production lists despite the aircraft being ex-Aviaco. It is clearly TAM-41 as photographic proof exists.
Could anyone shed any more light on this aircraft ?

Mark, do you have pics/date please? I seem to remember seeing them at the Hall!!!!!
I think 41 is the "odd" one out........I'm trawling through my logs, but just about to go to work, so it might be over the weekend, or early next week.....

John,
I have since discovered that TAM-41 was c/n 457 and was re-serialled TAM-48 not long afterwards....
