XV249

For those who missed the event. 249 was one of 4 ac stored in the woods at ISK. When 666 had a swim, 249 was taken out of the woods refurbished and flown to Marshalls of Cambridge for conversion to R1. The project was named 'Anneka', after Anneka Rice.

The remaining 3 ac were cut up and put in the back of an Antanov and flown to Hurn for conversion to MRA4.

I have another story about de-humidifiers and the 4 ac but I'll leave that for another day.
