I wonder if a museum will pick this one up? I hope so as I can’t think of any RAF 748’s that have been preserved (…waits hopefully for deluge of posts starting ‘Actually there’s a 748 at……’).

Maybe I should buy it and use it as somewhere to live; I wouldn’t mind betting it’s cheaper than houses are the moment!!! :roll:

Hmmm, Looks rather nice. love the jargon - buy yr own 'Non effective' 748
Ther must be a number dotted about. The only one I have seen is a white Andover parked up at Lanceria nr Jo'burg a couple of yrs ago. That too looked a little non effective..sadly.

That was the original Smiths one

One of the ex RAF went to africa where as far as I know it is still in service

Calling Air Atlantique Historic Flight!

Problem with that one is it was never an airliner.

Built as a test and caloibration airframe there can be little in common with a normal 748 where the other RAF 748's were at least in pax fit of sorts.

That must have been one of the last series 1's flying. :think:

Well I'm glad I've got a fair bit of cam-corder footage of it, which I shot at Boscombe, on a few occasions.

I've also got some of XS790...ahh, remember that one? (even though they did ruin it with lumps 'n' bumps!) And I've got the C.1s. I'll have to find a way of uploading it, to share it all.

'790 and '750 sounded different in terms of prop noise, although I think the prop diameter was the same, but '750 had rounded tips, would it have been that which would make a different note?

750 was a series 1 with lower powered engines

That was the reason for the different props.
