There was no market for them 30 years ago, I can’t see anyone being interested in restarting production again now. The ad is dated 2012, so I think it’s fair to assume that interest was limited…

That’s the trouble with t’internet. It’s like writing with a stick on the beach as the tide comes in. Give me the printed page any day!

Didn’t they chuck this Casa in a ditch for filming a sequence of a crashed one during Piece of Cake?

Like I said, the ‘hard line’ is the fuselage to cowling joint. The cowlings were presumably sprayed off the aircraft.

How can you tell what it has been painted with? I see cowlings sprayed grey, with the front section of the fuselage in green.

You can, but wouldn’t that rather defeat the object?

I would approach National Geographic, it is right up their street, ie strong geographical context, environmental issues, and a compelling human interest aspect.

A little research shows that NG do not accept unsolicited submissions.

Good news, that will fill some of the gap left by the loss to NSAM of the Ken Wallis-related exhibits.

It is on the RAF Museum’s website, and covers y/e 31/3/14

I would have liked to have seen the 1-11 in BEA ‘red square’ livery…

Surely that would be a rather pointless repetition of an identical scheme worn by the Trident parked next to it.

The exact text reads “Given the uncertain political situation in Egypt however there is a possibility that Kittyhawk may never be returned to the United Kingdom.”
