Laurence,
In that case, I won't apologise!
A point of interest. One of its sister 51 Comets is now on display at RAF Duxford. Of the 4 Comets on 51 (655, 695, 659 and 671) all were ex-BOAC. Ground crew would regularly find BOAC Serial numbers on components which had not been changed for some time. 671 was our transport aircraft and used purely for ferrying crew around.
