Shy: Not forgetting the all important white coveralls!

One from Denissimo's stable! This was my next encounter with the 500 (after those I had flown in Brazil). Only recently did I discover that she was the ex-Ferranti bird EI-ATY. Prior to Denissimo's acquisition this craft had flown as G-BDKL and G-VNPP.

This craft began life with Air Gregory as G-AXEJ and then passed through a number of celebrated owners until being re-named by Ryburn Air who applied her current registration. Now owned by a real life 'Mark Anthony'!

Began life with 'Hughes of Beaconsfield' in 1980 as G-BMJH before being acquired by Ken Stokes Business Forms under whose tenure she is seen in the above photo.
Was re-registered as G-ITUP by David Richards Autosport in 1988 thereafter winging her way to Ireland to fly as EI-BYV. Word is she ended-up in Turkey.
