    Probably because they want to do something bad disguised as a genuine user.

    I think this just about the British naming or changing the names of non British types

    The most famous I would think is the C-47 Skytrain which the British named Dakota.

    Good forward visibility as there was no need for the baggage long nose. I think the long nose was just for baggage as there was a shortage of space elsewhere, as Britten-Norman later did with the Trislander. Being a tail wheel, it serves no purpose to add a long nose that not needed, giving poorer ground visibility and extra weight.

    It’s just a quick fair over job and I would think very much lighter than the original bomber nose with equipment removed.

    To stop the turbines windmilling?

    Apparently, from what I’ve read here and there, that is correct.

    The RAF Hercules were stripped bare by Marshalls when new and refitted with British equipment. Sadly, she’s no good for spares to anyone other than the RAF who will have no use.

    Not a French thing as the A.350 is International, not French and the Caravelle used the British Comet nose, which, sorry to disagree with most,:confused: in my opinion is the ugliest nose ever fitted to a jet airliner.:apologetic:

    Certainly never been a civil 125 Srs.2 that I know of

    They were given US registrations to fly to Kemble

    Spares…only certain things like maybe engine would be similar toe the HS.125 Srs.1 & 3 so I doubt if there is much call for parts.

    It’s a try on surely

    The shop knows they must, but, if they refuse and the customer accepts that then that has saved them. If they get challenged the they give one and often try and make it look like they have done the customer a favour
