One interesting Brit. F/F 19.11.58 and ntu by BOAC, Capital, Northeast. Went to Transcontinental in Argentina 12.59 and bought by British Eagle in 3.64, soon converted to 308F. To Monarch 12.68 and leased to IAS, African Safari and then Invicta; bought 1.77. Wfu soon after photo and became derelict but dismantled and to Kemble with Britannia Aircraft Preservation Trust. Now at Speke on loan to Jetstream Club, very slowly being rebuilt and restored to Eagle colours - should look truly magnificent when finished
