Photo Comment

This aircraft was used, amongst other purposes, for aerial surveying for the Ordnance Survey (hence, I suppose, -OSGB). Flight Images, through the wholly owned subsidiary company Aerial Support Services, supplied the aircraft and the pilots to Getmapping.com, who in turn carried out the aerial surveys for various clients. Look closely and you will see some fluffy dice hanging in the aircraft. Behind this is a large grey box, part of the Vexcel Ultracam-D large format digital aerial survey camera.
