Thanks Brian,
Like JagRigger says, it couldn’t of been in these colours for long. In an aerial shot of Cosford from a brochure from 1986, you can just make out the Belfast in Heavylift colours. The brochures photo probably taken in 1985. Your photo Brian is great and a rarity of this particular aircraft.
I went to Cosford in the Autumn of 1986, my original logs are now long lost. So according to wrecks and relics Book of 1986, it was still in Heavylift colours at the start of 1986. So does anyone know what month and year it got repainted back into its RAF colour scheme.

BAE Woodford – Mistaken identity, the only one I can think of was the F111E of the USAF that missed the Woodford Airshow and did it’s flypast down Manchester Airports runway in 1977. As one local mag at the time put it ‘ qualiifying for Manchester Airports movements for that month’.
