Dak at Popham!
As I drove past Popham this morning I was amazed to see a Dak there, apparently in the old BEA markings. I did not have time to go and investigate so can anyone tell me what it's all about please?

The aircraft, G-DAKK, was operated by South Coast Airways but not owned by them, just leased. Since South Coast went bust the owner has no work for his two Dakotas and they are now for sale or lease.

Many thanks guys. I hope someone takes care of the old girl. I went on honeymoon in a Dak and talked to them all day when I worked abroad... not many at Heathrow nowadays!!
