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.

Another image from the night photo shoot at Newark Air Museum I took part in back in October…
XS417 first flew on 17 July 1964 and was delivered to 226 Operational Conversion Unit (OCU) at Royal Air Force (RAF) Coltishall in May 1965.
XS417 spent its final few years moving between 11 Squadron at RAF Binbrook and the Lightning Training Flight before being retired in May 1987 and was finally moved to Newark Air Museum on 27 April 1988.

A few weeks ago I took part in a night photo shoot at Newark Air Museum (in Nottinghamshire, not New Jersey) and this is my favourite image from the evening…
XM594 was delivered to the Royal Air Force on 9 July 1963, entering service with 27 Squadron as part of RAF Scampton’s Blue Steel Wing (Blue Steel was an air-launched, rocket-propelled nuclear armed standoff missile, built to arm the V-bomber force).
XM594 made its final flight on 7 February 1983, to the former RAF Winthorpe, home of the Newark Air Museum.
