Painted in BOAC retro livery in 2019 for BA's centenary, then stored at Cardiff in March 2020 before going to St Athan on 11 December 2020 for preservation as a 'gate guard'. Sadly this ended in mid August 2023 when scrapping commenced, and the airframe was moved to the scrapping area on 22 August 2023. It had perished by 25 October 2023.
