An image from a visit to the Midland Air Museum in May.

F-BGNR is a Vickers Viscount 708 that entered service with Air France in May 1954, serving with that airline until 1962 when it was sold to Air Inter who operated it for 11 years and whose livery the aircraft now carries.

In 1973 F-BGNR became a ground instructional airframe at Scone Airport in Scotland, remaining there until 1996 when it was sold to Skysport Engineering who put the aircraft into storage in Bedfordshire pending conversion to a conference venue. The conversion didn’t go ahead and F-BGNR moved to the Midland Air Museum in 2007.
