Beautifully restored by the Herald Society and Museum of Berkshire Aviation, but very difficult to photograph due to the close fence - this shot, taken just before completion of red painting on top of wings, needed a tall ladder and a battle with some dense undergrowth full of brambles

After BEA and British Airways service, G-AVMN was flown by European Aircharter and sub-operations Air Belfast and Air Bristol. Wfu at Bournemouth 2.99 and joined aviation museum there in 5.01 but left on low-loader 2.05 for Denmark to act as a restuarant. Fuselage sold and moved from Slagelse to Fladholte in 3.10. G-AVMO in the foreground, the next off the BAC production line, has fared rather better and is preserved at East Fortune having been in the Cosford collection before
