Nice repaint. I remember seeing Aer Turas at my local airfield Lulsgate as it was called then, many years ago. They used to fly in the race horses for the Cheltenham Festival on the Britannia. A very precious cargo. The Britannia looked massive parked up on our rather small apron in those days.. It was always going tech as well, one never knew if and when it would arrive.
you may have seen me then Felixx - I did several bloodstock Flights for them - it was a doodle for the loadie as they carried the grooms and a vet with them -- the bad thing was clean up after.....700kgs of wet peat with added horse apples!!!!
And yes it did break alot -- I also did a Dublin - Boston- Louisville round trip with them -- great bene's as both IAS and AT paid me
Never saw that one - the three I did note were EI-BCI (Luton, April 77), EI-BBH (June 77) and EI-BDC (June 77) - all ex RAF 253C versions which as Leif mentioned became available
