Photo Comment

Commemorating the airline's 25th Anniversary this revised livery started out in this polished metal finish and was referred to by some as The Silver Bullet. It proved too costly to clean and polish and it was later given a painted silver finish. That too proved problematic and some years later a further change took place. Unfortunately this was an evening backlit exposure and I didn't get to see it again.
