Photo Comment

Nose section of RJX85 E2396 (G-6-396) originally destined for Druk Air before the programme was cancelled and the already built aircraft were scrapped. This nose section was retained for a while as it was going to be used to repair RJ85 N528XJ (E2353) which had run into a jetway at Memphis. This plan was ditched as too expensive or complicated. Nose is now at the museum in Filton along with other sections of various RJXs to make a mock-up production line.
