This frame had previously flown as D-BIBI with Bavaria and I-TIVB with Itavia. BIA acquired it in Jul 73 from Handley Page. Later to Air-UK, British Air ferries and Channel Express. It last flew to the Yorkshire Museum (Elvington) in Oct Dec 97. After spending 18 years outdoors it suffered so extensively from corrosion that in 2015 it was scrapped. A great shame.
