Had been returned to ATEL for maintenance in November 1971 and seen here minus engines, outer wings & tail surfaces. It was removed from storage on 18th December 1972 and brought back into service at considerable expense to re-enter service with BAF on 27th May 1973, named "Big Bill". Sold in June 1976 to SOACO as TR-LWP. Broken up at Brazzaville in 1986. This photo is copyright © Terry Dann, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
