Any truth to the rumour that one of ACL's venerable old girls got ramp rash at Baginton International this morning?

Wing hit a Portacabin. I understand that a second 727 is being positioned in to cover.

Little scrape on the wingtip ,a new wingtip did the job.
And the old girl only has 2 more weeks to go before retiring:(

Surely not a 'Frantic' attempt to secure a discount on a possible foray into the jet age!! :D ;)
Certainly Not. They'll never catch on!
If had been at LHR we could have made a proper job of it if had required the services of a tug.
Heard in EMA, last night, or the night before, can't remember:p
ACL is going to operate 72's from Coventry, on the route Coventry-Rennes(Brittany)-Marseille(wild south).
Big problem : the runway lenght in Coventry.
You never know:cool:
