G-DOCU was damaged by a ground vehicle in Genoa last week

Looks more like iceberg damage to me
Severe enough, given the age and the type future with the carrier that consideration is being given to writing it off.
Proabably more value as spares

I mentioned in another thread that BA were using a Titan Boeing 757
This is to fill in for G-DOCU and is Gatwick based as was 'CU

Now, the 757 is a very different beast, a real thing of beauty

Ben
I just checked the aircraft status
Better sit down as I have some bad news for you
It is my sad duty to inform you that G-DOCU was repaired and is back in service
You have my deepest condolences
