Could anyone tell me if an airline has christened one of their aircraft “City of Exeter, If so which airline and type was so named and what happened to the aircraft

Many Thanks, Dai Lee

Originally qquoted by Newforest

A friend (who is heavily into railways) asked me the question as one who is deeply into aircraft.

I defer to their knowledge of steam trains

Does anyone have a picture of G-ALWF in British Eagle Livery. If so could you please advise me so that I may satisfy my friend’s curiosity

Scheme will have been identical to the one on sister ship G-ATFN here –

Sounds like you have a bet on it! It was only in service with British Eagle for six months, so photos will be rare.:)
