Sunderland Mk.V , ML796 was used as nightclub and restaurant (le Mister Blue). those photos were taken around 1970 .
“A planned motorway through the site forced M. Bertin to offer it free to anyone who could take it away. The offer was accepted by the Imperial War Museum and it arrived at Duxford in five sections on 9.7.76”
