This really is WV256 and is ex G-BZPB. Now positioned as a gate guardian for the CVT West facility. The port side has ads for the DC-6 Diner at Airbase but was unshootable due to the fence.

This beautiful old plane is now preserved at Airbase for future generations to enjoy. Technically she could be flyable again but, as time goes on, this is looking less and less likely.

Seen at Airbase at Coventry, this is a classic way to deal with a redundant classic aircraft. It has been turned into a stylish and popular restaurant whilst retaining a good deal of its original interior.

Whilst it is unfortunate that this aircraft will never fly again, it has been preserved as the restaurant at Airbase, a working museum at Coventry. The conversion is stylish and superbly executed and the whole Airbase experience is worth a visit.
