The one at Cranfield in 1996 was one of the 1980s Instone Freighters which had been bought back to the UK from Canada earlier in 1996 by an airline pilot I think. It also appeared in the 50th anniversary flypast at Heathrow before unfortunately being written off in a ground looping accident at Enstone shortly after the Cranfield event. Such a shame.
