Fate of Trident G-ARPT at Stansted?
After its destruction by Ambassador G-AMAD at LHR, the fuselage of Trident G-ARPT was sold to Channel Airways for their engineers to practice on. I recently bought this rare slide of it at STN in the Channel hangar. Does anyone know the dates it arrived and was scrapped? The tail and wings of G-ARPT went to Southend.

Are you sure the photo wasn't taken at Southend?
The source I'm looking at reckons that the wings went to Stansted and the fuselage to Southend, rather than vice versa. |

Looks to me like a Viscount nose in the right hand edge of the picture, so Southend might be a better bet.
I was just about to post a clipped photo of a Viscount on the Name that flying machine thread. I will clip some further.... |
Not convinced that's a Viscount on the right. The slopes of the nose don't look right, and I think it's too high off the ground.

Stansted has this 737-600 training airframe belonging to a certain Irish airline.
