There was one in about ten days ago and by Friday (15.6) there were two.

Shame I missed the VC10; I flew on a three as a kid, all to/from/within Africa. The last was the Air Malawi machine. More recently (relatively) I flew on an IL-62 of LOT which was an interesting if hair-raising experience. Ahhh, nostalgia!
