Ken,
While it flew with HEMS in London 6009 (G-HEMS) was always squeaky clean and you could eat your dinner off the floor (not that you would want to with all the unmentionable fluids I saw spilled over it mind). I last saw it looking much as it did in the photo above.
So on landing at the PDG hangar in Inverness one day in 2006 I was very interested to hear from the refueller that G-HEMS was back from holidays in Antigua and was in that very hangar. I walked in to say hello to my old friend who I had not seen for many years.
Well what a shock. The poor thing looked as if it hadn't had a clean since Biggin Hill 1990 - or a can of spray paint either. God knows what the Montserrat passengers thought and I can't understand how anyone could let it get in such a state.
PDG have a different mentality fortunately and any machine of theirs that I have flown has always been spotless so 6006 is in good hands again now.
