On static display at the 1974 RAF Leuchars Air Show, XR371 "Enceladus" was the last of a batch of ten Belfasts built for the RAF as heavy freighters. Entered service in 1967. After withdrawal of the whole fleet in 1976, this example was put on display at the RAF Museum, Cosford. This photo is copyright © David A.
