Short Change

That's a nice model Ben Looks like it flies nice too even though he said it flies like a brick. Probably matches the real thing

Garry.. yup, I remember the 'proper' GUE paint job. Not my fave I'm afraid to say. I'd not seen the one above before.. it being ex Maersk is probably why

When I worked for BAC Express, we had some Air to Air shots done over Devon one shot in particular over a coastal caravan park. There was a copy on the ops notice board where some wag had drawn a bubble coming from one of the caravans saying 'Mummy, can we have wings on our caravan too!'

LOL, I thought it was going to say "when I grow up can I be like that"

I used to know a chap who flew for BAC, not sure if he was on sheds of F27's. He flies for Easyjet now, but don't think he enjoys that as much as BAC.

Guess he made the Shorts out of one of the boxes his proper models came in

It'll be a nice aeroplane once they take it out of it's box!

Or are we being unfair to the Hunchback of Hangar 9?

[DaveB]

No.. not unfair I think. You only have to look at it's parents to realise it never stood a chance
