Holding straight and level - however briefly - on its approach to Prestwick's Runway 30, returning to base from a "general handling" session in the Turnberry area. Delivered new as G-BIYN in 1981 and subsequently passed through a number of private hands, becoming G-UCCI then G-LBAT in 1988. Re-registered as G-IIIX in 1989. Acquired by David Francis Friel in 2019. This photo is copyright © David A. Montgomery, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
