Thats a great shot, was it taken from the fence…..and if so what lens were you using ?

Thanks, it was a Nikon 70-300.

The RAF survey seems to differ from the opinion of the team who surveyed it in the past couple of years:

Or perhaps the RAF survey was purely to ascertain whether the airframe could be moved safely only?

Well, G-NFLC anyway.

Cranfield now have G-NFLA, a later model Jetstream. “NFL” could be read as signifying “National Flying Laboratory” apparently.

G-NFLC was last known at Perth as an instructional airframe.

Kept up to date as well.

In a tenuous link there is a 707 in Manston at the mo, TZ-TAC.
