Two former ETPS Viscounts, XR801 and XR802, arrived at Coventry from Boscombe Down on May 18 1972, having been bought by Shackleton Aviation, but failed to find a buyer and were scrapped. XR801 is seen here after the four R-R Dart engines had been removed.

Delivered to Trans-Canada Air Lines as CF-TGN in April 1955, it served until September 1962 and then served with various corporate owners until acquired by Go in October 1979. When photographed it had recently been resprayed in this new colour scheme, and, according to the Vickers Viscount Network it was fitted with a new luxury 19-seat interior with video players and telephones. Although, (again according to VVN), it changed hands a couple of more times before it was scrapped in April 1993, I have been unable to find a photograph of it away from Tucson, or indeed with a full set of engines.

Parked and possibly withdrawn from use at this stage of its life. This aircraft started its life with Trans-Canada Air Lines in 1955.
