A few pics taken at Kemble this afternoon:
Former Air Atlanta 747-200 TF-ATC not much longer for this world
Two former Meridiana BAe 146s in store – I-FLRE and I-FLRO
The three former Airtours / MyTravel DC-10-10s are also in store
Note G-DPSP at rear with Oriental Airways titles!!!
A Puma from Sierra Leone in one of the hangars
Behind it were two former Chilean Air Force Pumas (H-253 and H-255) too!!!
Another picture of the Airtours / MyTravel DC-10s as we taxi out
I-FLRE – the first of the two ex-Meridiana 146s parked since the airline introduced its A319s
I-FLRO – the other ex-Meridiana 146
One last look at former Air Atlanta 747-200 TF-ATC
Best,
Andy

You’re not the only one, Dutchy, all I see are red crosses!

I can’t see anything either.
As for the cost of the aircraft you’re talking about… didn’t someone say that MyTravel were trying to flog their DC-10s for just £250,000 each?

£5 – 10 million, really as much as that. Even if they arent airworthy and just going to be scrapped?

I think the reason is that these pictures were posted in July, and if they are linked from a website, the links expire after a while so they wont show.

Our of interest, how much would it cost to buy one of those DC10s or 747s?
Depends how many hours are on the airframe, but I guess at £5million – 10million, maybe upwards

I will ask my daddy to buy me them. I simply must have them! I will stroke their noses and me and my ickle nephews could play in them.

I want those MYT DC10-10s. I love them. I want to have them. Please dont scrap them, they are gorgeous.
I can put you in contact with someone who could perhaps broker you a deal… lol
though you’ll need a million or two £

I see in the LAASI mag that the two 146’s have been restored to the UK register… Just thought you’d like to know.

I cant beleive its happened again!
Last week I stopped at Kemble and took some shots of the aircraft, and I sent them off to be developed and they should be back with all my RIAT pics tomorrow (hopefully) and youve beating me to it. Obviously mine arnt as close as yours but I missed out again!,
I say again, as it happened in ’03 when the Canada 3000 duo, MD10 and the Af were there. I had got beating to it by a few days then aswell
By: green320 - 26th July 2004 at 10:08
That was also the first 747 I ever saw!!
By: Speedbird 12T - 25th July 2004 at 23:07
Its sad to see TF-ATC like that, its the only 747 that I have seen at Newcastle.
By: green320 - 25th July 2004 at 22:37
At last, they’re going!!
