Fareastdriver,
nice pic of TG 528 taken I presume at Duxford before she was repainted and moved indoors. After disposal in 1968, 528 went to the Skyfame Museum at Staverton. I went to pay my respects and a young chap showed me round. In the galley I put my hand down the sound proofing and produced a pad of trim sheets and a stick of paper cups. He was astounded and asked how I knew they were there. I explained you could have found the same on any Hastings. 528 is in my log book but chugalug is the Hastings meister on these threads. He may be persuaded to tell his tale of the 'interesting' arrival he once had at West Raynham in a Hastings. The Hastings was described as being built of old Halifax parts left over From WW2.
