[QUOTE=LTNman;9479350]What a great photo. When Court went bust the Tristars were stored in the north west corner so I wonder where they are in this photo?[/QUOTE

Good point! I seem to remember the 1-111's being packed into the NW corner to take up minimum apron space with, (I think), the Tristars at the very back. The parking looks very neat and also as if the aircraft had mainly been taxyed on to stand.

The Court line bankrupcy had an indirect effect on some of us who worked in the tower as ATCAs at the time as our ATC licence courses were cancelled due to the financial impact on the Airport. It didn't stop any of us getting there in the end though!
