G-APSA Douglas DC-6B Air Atlantique (Britsh Eagle scheme) Coventry 14.12.08
During the 2008/9, the UK air show season was treated to G-APSA giving some very spirited displays in this wonderful British Eagle scheme. Unfortunately corrosion subsequently ground the aircraft. The cost to make it airworthy again was inhibitive. The history of this airframe, as you would expect, is enormous, but the good news is the airframe survives at South Wales Aviation Museum.
