Here are the two Air Faisal Britannias, both with their distinctive ex-RAF cheatlines, although Lima Zulu's has been changed to green. Originally XM490 in 1960, she was bought in 11.75 by this rather shadowy operator, sister-ship G-BEMZ (ex XL660) following in 2.77. Broken up at Luton 9.79

This 747 leased from Aer Lingus carried a non-standard color scheme. Delivered to EI March 18, 1971, British Airways leased it from March 1976 to May 1981 which included a short transfer to Bristish Caledonian when their DC-10 delivery was delayed. Kabo Air was the last airline to operate the jumbo (5N-AAA), retiring it to Roswell, NM at the end of 2002.

36 Mirage IIIS interceptors were built in Switzerland with strengthened airframes, the Swiss AF requiring integrity of carrier-based aircraft standards, allowing crane lifting in the mountain cavern hangars and JATO take-offs. The surviving 30 were withdrawn in 1999, by then in grey camouflage, and this one was stored at Buochs-Ennetbü, although the cockpit section is now preserved in Oslo
