Five engined VC 10
Although photos of VC 10's in any flavour are hardly rare........those showing the spare engine carrying pods are quite scarce
Here G-ASGE models the look

I'm surprise you had any Tonks unless it came with the BA stock.
Seeing the RAF VC 10 C1 had a freight door and in any case there were transports available so I doubt that they would ever need to hang spares in a pod

How times do change - for the better of course.
I remember we used to have to send engines to AOG's by cargo a/c if available; in our case Brit 'CF - or even resort to chartering to do the job.
I well remember sweating for ages to get one engine thru the cargo door of a BOAC 707. Blessed if I can remember what it was - bad memory says a P&W for the short lived 'ZD -ex Qantas short nose. It went in, finally, with millimetres each way. Damn thing - still remember it!
