Thanks for sharing, Peter. That's one of my all time favourite colour schemes and very well lit.

Here's how it looks in P3d
Hi Dave. Do you have a functioning VC with the One-Eleven in P3D? As I've mentioned on the P3D thread, I have no functioning clickspots (same for Rick's HS748) and although people have replied with helpful comments, no one has said if they have these working.
Apologies to Peter - it's not my intention to hijack this thread
Regards
Kevin

Amazing co-incidence Dave!...I was beginning to work out how it could possibly be, as I don't really believe in co-incidences. I did find that the Berlin Tower in the distance is aligned with a different window and I found what I thought was an error in the repaint, with the hyphen missing between "one" and "eleven" but it was on my iPad and when I used two fingers to zoom in...There it was! But the shadow on the ground! Amazing!
Trident 3s went there for a few months in 1975 and I flew in command of G-AWZZ to Templehof and back on 2nd August 1975...It was a bit tight for Tridents really so I guess that is why we didn't go there for long. I had just moved from Vanguards/Merchantmen to Trident 3s earlier that year in March and remained on them till I retired.
Peter : I have often wondered how you found the 1-11 to fly compared with the Trident. Everyone I knew who flew the 1-11 loved it despite its fairly limited performance . Not everyone I knew who flew the Trident was so enamoured. Your comparative experiences would be very interesting

He took that one of G-AWZH on the 1st August 1975 and another of G-AWZC on the 3rd August but sadly my flight in G-AWZZ was on the 2nd August and he has just informed me that he did not photograph that day
Here are the two he took each side of my visit:-
Just shows how close the flats were to the runway
Notice the Boost Engine intake doors are open ready for take-off
