I am glad that you guys have found the pictures on my web site because I had forgotten about them!

I was sure that the mystery fuselage from Forres was a Buc, the same midnight blue colour scheme, however I will stand corrected.

Quarrywood was some place that’s for sure, we’ll never see its like again.

Just for the record, I’m quoting out of Wrecks and Relics 8th edition
“Forres… the situation at the D & S metals scrapyard in Gordon Street has hardly changed….noted in 1981 were large pieces of Buccaneer S.1 XN973 (ex Lossie Dump) and a pair of Gannet wings.”

And yes it does look very much like an 8 instead of a 9.
