I personally will always have a very soft spot for this fine aircraft. Years ahead of its time in design and general clevverness.
Hampered by always having to suckle the hind mammary of the VC10 and by those who were completely unaware of its true capabilities.
Hated by Navigators. What a great shame that some much needed money was not forthcoming in the important areas and at the important times.
Bye Bye 216. You gave me the best 20 years of my RAF career.
You are sorely missed.
