    It could have started as a Test Shell, I do recall seeing Jetstream 41 Noses @ the Prestwick Factory, After its life as a Test Shell was finished that is when it was converted to a Procedures Trainer.

    Gosh, I once spent a summer helping put these things together.

    HI111 Thanks for thr reposting of ny image of the cockpit of G-PLAH Jetstream 31 C/N 640.

    The cockpit of this aircraft has now been removed from Millom to be converted into a Simulator.

    I wonder where it is now???

    Paul,

    Many thanks for the Good News that G-UIST has been saved, any chance of you posting some images of her?? I was lucky enough to fly in 4 of the Highland Jetstreams and G-SEIL, but UIST eluded me and althouigh I managed to see her @ Inverness, she was in the distance, so I was nat able to get a good shot of her.

    I look forward to seeing her, Please let me know is she is making a trip to central Scotland.

    I have created a Photo tribute to Highland Airways on Flickr at http://www.flickr.com/groups/hiway/

    I am glad to see a bit of a CAAFU 748 lives on, at least I assume that’s where the fwd door came from.
    Good luck with the move. I’d better post those rivets I promised you;)

    One of the CAAFU HS748’s lives on in a Diving School somewhere in England, I dont have my copy of Wrecks & Wrelics to hand so cant tell you which one.

    There is a shot of it underwater on Flikr

    Hope this was of some use

    I believe the replica standing outside Edinburgh Airport is the Turnhouse one, but I could be wrong. It’s painted as an aircraft of 603 Squadron.

    I Can confirm that the Turnhouse Replica is now standing Guard at the entrance to the main terminal in Edinburgh marked as L1067 “Blue Peter”.

    THe Spitfire @ Leuchars was an original one. LA189 is now in the Kelvingrove Museum & Art Gallery in GLASGOW.

    I can post some images of LA189 once I find them
