What I love about this site is when subjects I never even knew of are identified. . One never stops learning. . As just now!
Thanks Sycamore re mass balances, think I might have a 1/48 kit in the loft which features similar on elevators or ailerons... it must be a fairly common vintage type but damned if I can remember what! |

But probably the Accountant? https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....08ba7e8281.jpg Although one artist gives the door a rectangular shape? https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....86822bf474.jpg |
G-ATEL?!
AviationTraders Engineering Ltd. So personal reggies were alive and well, even in 1957! That sequence wasnt issued until 1965. |

That name reminds me of the day I attended an Air Transport Licensing hearing at the CAA in Kingsway, London. It was the Skytrain licensing application and Freddie Laker was there with some glamorous cabin crew. During the hearing he asked the Chairman if he could present a petition supporting Skytrain which had been signed by 3 million people. The Chairman agreed and the hosties then proceeded to fill the whole room with stacks of paper about 10 feet high, so much so that you could barely see the panel! The Chairman then asked Freddie if he wanted this huge mound to be submitted as evidence. “Of course I do!”, blurted out Freddie, to which the Chairman immediately retorted : “Then, as required by the regulations, you must submit it in triplicate ...as all other evidence”. The room collapsed in laughter! |
Yes the fabulously named Accountant - I thought it would last a bit longer but there are too many clever folk on here... over to Noyade!

The Old Joke.
!st Prototype " The Accountant" 2nd Prototype "The Administator" 3rd Prototype "The Receiver" And let's not go in to the Avro 748's ancestry! |
The 748 is still flying out of Pickle Lake , and Red Lake Ontario . Testimony to the genius of Avro Engineering .
Still lots of Airframes left , surprised nobody has not converted them with newer noisemakers . |

Vague recollection of several out of sequence allocations being granted before the general free for all started in the mid 1970s - G-VTOL, G-BSBH, G-BJCB plus the BOAC Concorde allocations were all quite well known, but I think there were one or two earlier examples in the 1950s/60s. Earliest was probably G-EDCA (Director of Civil Aviation, Sir William Sefton Brancker), allocated to two separate DH-60s when the G-EAAA-EBZZ sequence was allocated prior to the modern register commencing from G-AAAA in 1929.
Edit: yes, forgotten G-BSST! |
I was thinking Siebel 204
(Siebel is one of the largest jewelry stores in the Netherlands) |
