Yes indeed it was a very sad day that I learned of G-BBHMs demise. We took very great care of the old girl all the way out to Bangladesh and back again. I flew it back to Aberdeen in July 98 as well.

It's a sad fact of the AAIB report that "HM" was significantly abused during multiple engine starts at Portland and this lead directly to her demise. Probably by someone with no "mechanical sympathy"
