Auction sites really do show up some oddballs some of which have given fuel for paint.

Perhaps not this. The roundel appears to have been painted over the airline logo and it is wearing a Hercules serial

Hi Leif

Film prop would make sense.

I saw O Lucky Man, starring Malcolm McDowell, Helen Mirren and a host of Great British actors, great music by Alan Price and his band. Directed by Lyndsey Anderson, Quite surreal.
