This was the largest aircraft that had visited Castle Donington at that time, taken there to be shown to the Rolls Royce employees that had developed the RB211 engine that powered the aircraft. Same registration N301EA later used on c/n 1002, following delivery in March 1973. This aircraft c/n 1003 then became N302EA. Taken on an old folding roll film camera and scanned from a 6 x 9 cm negative which was probably developed by me in print developer!
