A bit of trivia regarding the aircraft pictured (ZJ964) & the crashed aircraft (ZJ965) in that they have consecutive serial numbers & have always been on contract together and therefore had consecutive registrations in Singapore, UK, Nigeria & Belize.

Actually one from Middle Wallop replaced it. Known locally as 'Kermit', or 'Huey Green' due to its interesting colour scheme.
The other one which may well be G-BFER is in bits at Shawbury and will reappear as a military machine at a future date. The tail boom was in the respray shop the other day, and not all of the serial was visible as the baggage door had been removed.
