Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

I would concur with Skyknight - 1974/5 most likely, though I don't recall Viscounts parking at those B-pier gates other than on rare occasions. If I squint, the one in the photo looks to me to be in the BEA/BA transition livery, still with red wings.
The Connie would be N7777G

and the 707/s probably VP-BDF & C6-BDG, which were stored at Dublin for some years after Bahamas World failed.

Did I just lose a whole year of my life, or did they have more than flying machines at RIAT 2013?!

I can see a 4 engined jet at the rear of the photo but I would of guessed it was a 707.
Mister Jingles,
Sorry about the delay in the reply and for the quality(not exactly KH-12 quality).You're probably correct. I just looked at the picture closer, and there seemed to be difference in the size between the aircraft next to the Constellation, and the aircraft next to it. It is hard to tell as the aircraft in at the back of the photo is foreshortened, but still appears have a slightly thicker fuselage, and seems to be of a slightly greater height than the aircraft. Again the orientation of the aircraft relative to the camera is a slight hindrance, as is the contrast of the photo, to the establishing exact type identification. I could be and most probably am in error here.0 -

Its actually on the runway in Kerry, about to take off.
Also guys in regards to this picture.
Note the windsock. Its taking off and landed about 40 minutes previously with a tailwind on runway 21. Is there any reason for this? literally less than 5 minutes after it landed on 21 a small piston prop landed on 03, and then every other aircraft used 03 for the day, even the Flybe dash.
The wind stayed the same throughout the day, and wasnt different for the ATR. The only possible reason why I think it might have done this was because 21 is ILS but 03 isnt, even though it was a perfect day with 80mile visiblity +0 -

All performances are taken as worst case, and runway 03 is obstacle limited, therefore, even with a tailwind of 10kts the load carrying capacity can be almost 1000kgs more by taking runway 21..0 -
