Anyone remember this aircraft? It was based for several years in the 60's and 70's, operated by the National Coal Board (I believe the CEO lived near Breachwood Green, and was a vocal opponent of the airport). If anyone has a colour photo it would be a big help - this is my (crude) attempt at repainting a Flight Simulator aircraft but I'm not sure how accurate this is. I remember the registration on the tail as being black but the only photos I can find online are black and white and they look as if the reg is actually the same tone as the fuselage cheat line. It was repainted in 1968 with a larger (black) registration on the rear of the fuselage. I haven't managed to change the colour of the prop spinners yet - believe they should be white. Any comments etc. welcome. Also any info as the where it flew to would be helpful (ongoing FS project).
