I was up at EF a couple of weeks ago. Apparently, the 707, VC-10, and Trident were scrapped because the aircraft were in too bad a state to restore. It sounds like they wanted to keep them intact though, and they trying to find a Trident to install in a new hangar they are trying to build as part of...

I've been busy with a few other things recently, and some aspects of the VC have proven more challenging than expecte...

Trident 'BB?

I was at a museum a couple of weeks back, at which there were two Trident noses. One was an ex-BA T3, G-AWZJ, but I could not identify the other. All recognisable markings had been removed, however a blue stripe was just visible on one side, and a yellow one on the other. Two letters, which looked l...
