Great pictures! One question though...what is the logo by the side of the forward passenger door? It looks really familiar, but I can't for the life of me remember what it is.

Isn't it the logo of the Royal Air Mail Service?

Looks pretty much so:

Just to clarify - at some point (late 70s / early 80s?) the logo incorporated either a "T" for technology or an "E" for export - the 146 acheived both! More recently the award has been supplanted by the Queen's award for Enterprise which is a stylised "e".

Ok Neil.

I've always known that logo to be the QAforI (or to be more precise.. 'A' QAforI) which covers a multitude of sins. As we're usually pedantic about detail here.. I accept that my nit has been picked.
