Macedonian doesn't work for me John.. a bit loud!!

Love the others though.. especially the 'Silver City'

You are single-handedly responsible for me spending far more time in our DC3's than I'd like!!

Hi Garry,
I've got one B & W photo of G-AOBN in Air Kruise. The tail lines/flag and reg position are as per Silver City. The fuselage looks the same also minus the small detail lines top and bottom of the main fuselage stripe. Do you know if the stripes/lettering are same colour as Silver City ?
Dave, yep it is a bit loud but that's how it was.

Thanks John
Another old friend there - I used to sit on the grass at Luton across from the original terminal (If your too young DONT ask) and watch while it taxied out with its wingtip over my head Anyone know what happened to PPO (Garry?)
Thanks again John

The old Brit Dak fleet has gone through somewhat of a Quantum Leap of late :roll:
John
Air Kruise was Silver City
Everything the same except the wording
Leif
G-APPO was withdrawn at Luton in 1967 so I guess scrapped there sometime later.
I suppose you are going to tell me it went into a quarry or was turned into something else
