End of the line

This old lady is to get broken up in a fire practice tomorrow. She spent most of her life with AST at Perth.

I wonder how many forumites out there flew her on the way to their ATPL?

Just checked my logbook. I flew her on a maintenence flight to Perth from Edinburgh 20/06/1998. It may have been her last flight.
