With DM's permission here are two (as yet unpainted?) BA-BEA interim livery Trident 3s that will shortly be appearing as downloads on the new Trident Preservation Website, along with some other T3s, including a complete ZK pack, the prototype and some more Chinese ones.

Just very minor mods to DM's ones. I have also done ZK in BA/Landor (when the T3 was at beta stage!) and ACS (around the same time) and those will be up on the website too.

Very, very nice. I absolutely love the trident.

Another slightly unusual one modified from DM's textures:

Might do a couple more 1Es as they had some interesting hybrid liveries.

That's interesting Toby

I had never seen a pic of that in BEA colours

Did 'YB wear that as well?

Not too sure. I saw a pic of this one as above in a book today called "Airliners of the 1970s" at Brooklands. I have a pic of it looking very dirty with BA titles slapped over the top of the BEA ones and another pic of it as a backdrop for a (promotional pic?) of the Jaguar XJ coupe of teh same era in a nice period shade of brown :sicky:

Heres the next one, G-AYVC circa 1978:

So did it have BEA titles

or BEA Channel Islands

YB and YE were with the CI division not that they ever went to the CI it's just that included Birmingham where they were presumably based.
