That post was purely a response to Leif mentioning the BOAC/BEA training and I was not aware of anything said earlier :think:
I see what you mean but I had to read back to find it

Dunno Leif
We saw the Hamble ones who repostioned here after complaints about noise nuisance at Hurn where they used to fly to,
Ironic given the amount of One-Eleven testing at the time.

Tony,
Very interesting photos. The Broussard at Eggesford (No.208 and now G-YYYY) used to patrol the French Sector from 1976-1982 and we believe was the only aircraft of its type to see service in Berlin.
