Just had a look over on the indispensable duxford-update.info, and there’s a good shot of the Hastings inside Airspace with her newly applied Berlin Airlift colours.

She looks great just needs the outer wings etc reattaching and shes done.

Alex, I think the dim light in the conservation area, compounded by Spec Saver's finest, made the silver paint scheme look like bare metal. What you see in that link is exactly what I saw at Duxford on Saturday. BTW, the wing is not yet refitted.

Lovely shots Paul. Particularly nice to see the York with her wings on again
Always liked the Dash7 too though I'm not sure why :think:

I think the Dash 7 is one of those aircraft that just
looks right. Clearly a modern airframe, but
four props are relatively unusual, and they hark back to an earlier age. It looks like it can go anywhere and do anything.

I think you've hit the nail on the head there Paul. That sums up the old girl very nicely
