Fine sight of two Electras gracing Southend's apron together, viewed from the old waving-off terrace. Still bearing her original Eastern registration here, later becoming EI-CHO then G-CHNX. Broken up at Bournemouth in 2002 (nose saved and moved to Pershore, owner intended repaint in 1959 Eastern colours)

Here's a novelty - surely the only Jet Provost to appear in airline colours! Taken on charge by the RAF in 1960 as XM473, went to No 1 SoTT at Halton as 8974M and later up to Norwich for training use by Air UK apprentices who added the fake marks 'G-TINY' (real reg later used by a Zlin). Moved to a Bedford college and now with an ex-military aircraft dealership near Ipswich

Resplendent in her new colours, only a year later this one of a pair of DC-10s reverted to the traditional Nigeria Airways livery in which she was delivered in 7.76. After a long period of storage in poor condition at Lagos, she was finally broken up in mid-2008
