On The Dump At Exeter
Transited through Exeter today and noticed the forlorn looking hulks on the fire dump. A 146/RJ with a very port wing low aspect first drew my attention. Aft of the 146 a fuselage nestles on trestles; does anyone have any info on this relic?
Thanks in anticipation

The 146 is a former Jersey European one - which suffered from corrosion inside the fuel tank's, as well as being a time expired airframe and was donated to Exeter Airport's fire service The fusalage on trestle's is one of Jersey European's old Fokker F27 fusalages that was used as a cabin crew trainer and was again donated to Exeter Airport's fire service.
