Saunders Roe Princess
I think the figure sticking out of the upper hatch is Dick Stratton who was the Flight Engineer on the Princess program. http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthr...=Dick+Stratton
He was showing me some old photos in the Bicester bar and with a grin pointed out the figure on a Princess picture, which I assume is the same photo.

Some favourite pics.
A couple posted by members on the Guild of Air Pilots website:
B747-400 G-ARJV City of Lincoln 16th May 1993
Formation flight with the Red Arrows, 1500ft AGL over Lincoln Cathedral to mark the 50th anniversary of the Dam Busters raid.
(Alan Robinson, Andy Bascombe)
Run into Lincoln from the South
I didn't take any of them.
Wish I had!

Ah, good old "CF-BXO". Built by Vickers Canada in 1940 (C/N CV 209). Served with No's 5, 7 and 9 Squadrons RCAF. Sold into civilian life in May 1940. She flew for various operators until the early 1970's when she was sold to the RAF Museum in Hendon.I remember reading that she was brought back to the UK in an RAF Belfast.
Now on display at RAF Hendon in Super Stranraer Configuration with her old RCAF number, 920. As far as I am aware she is the only complete Stranrear in existence.
I had not seen this photograph of her before. Thanks Evansb.

Apologies, having problems with getting the photo to appear here.
Took this at Fort Paull in East Yorkshire last week. She moved from the Army Transport Museum in Beverley when the museum closed, but good to see she's back on display!

There's also a picture in the same photostream of a rather ill Hunter and a Blackburn triplane.
