Wings to the right, tail and cockpit to the left. Given the amount of this airframe that was in existence at the time, it is surprising to believe that its fate was to be scrapped at Bournemouth in January 2008! Some of it is believed to have been used in the rebuild of G-NATY. See also here, taken about four months later.
