ORAC - Now that’s interesting, the other photos in the album aren’t mine and not posted by me. The photo I posted was only scanned yesterday so has not been posted before.

Checks Complete - We were taking it out to the Far East, and ended up in Colombo for a #3 Engine Oil Cooler Leak, tried to get out after ‘fixing’ it but still remained once airborne. Biggest Fuel Dump I’ve ever done. Then once we eventually did get out, we got a full smoke & fumes 80 minutes out of KL at night in the middle of the worst tropical storm I’ve ever seen. Flight Deck ConPac shed it’s bearings. Cue 4 nights in KL
