What a shame that G-HAEC is no more. The airframe was sourced in the Philippines and rebuilt/restored in Hong Kong by the Hong Kong Aircraft Engineering Company (HAECO), hence 'G-HAEC', under the watchful eye of Mal Rose who was then a Cathay Pacific flight engineer plus some others including Ray Hanna who was also with Cathay. Ray did a fast taxi run at Kai Tak but was prohibited to take off. Soon after that she was crated up and shipped to the UK.
