HI Brian
Point taken.
is the nose different on the 125 ?.
& does the Dominie not have the bubble roof like the 125 & Viscount have ?.
I can't put my finger on whats missing, looks great anyway
& great photo there
Regards
Rick

That looks like a different nose cone to the 125 and even the Dominie in it's earliest form.......could have been changed given the long use it has had.
Hard to tell just from pics especially that livery as it is a shape distorting livery.

Rick,
Yes the canopy are is of the same type as the Viscount not so pronounced though. Not too sure but I think the nose on the Dom is an 'adjustment' for the radar used in the various training programs.

I agree Garry, and this rather confirms it

Much more slope down from the screen to the nose whereas the "new" Dominie is flat.
