Photo Comment

Parked in the old Bay 1 at Prestwick's Main Terminal. Sporting the RAF's then standard colour scheme for tactical transports, Dark Earth / Mid-Stone / Black, reflecting their main focus of operation in the Far/Middle East. The White on the cockpit roof was intended to keep the heat down.
