Hi Phil, Great to hear that G-AZDC is still flying. I was one of the guys that took delivery of it when she arrived at Redhill from Italy in early 1971. This was a great job for us as she had crashed on a rig off Rimini? and the Italians had chopped off the tailcone to get it off the rig. The fuselage arrived on a lowloader from Dover with half the Ebglish countryside hanging on her and all the other "bits" came in several wooden crates.
Once it was rebuilt it went to Aberdeen early 72 and flew alongside
G-AZNE. G-AZRF was also one of the ships we had in Aberdeen early 70's.
