Japan Airlines had both 'Domestic' and 'International' DC-10's. The 'Domestic' aircraft had the centre mainwheel leg disconnected and the aircraft were then operated like the DC-10-10 with a lower Max TOW, therefore qualifying for reduced landing charges. This aircraft was in service with JAL for almost 22 years, from Jan-82 until just 3 months after this photo was taken. In Aug-03 it was ferried to Mojave (MHV), CA, USA, were it was stored as N857V. It's still at Mojave today (Feb-13) and is in line for scrapping very soon.
