Just curious,

RTÉ (the Irish national broadcaster) have twice now used this picture in aviation related stories on their web site.



Anyone know what aeroplane this is?

Nostalgia, that reminds me of flying those beautiful machines in Rhodesia on the routes out of Salisbury, up to Kariba, Bulawayo, the Falls, until Mugabe's terrorists shot two of them down.
