I believe that was the one that was lost here at Stratford. Too sad. Wish that one was still flying here.

Sad loss of life.
Let us hope that someday this bird will fly again.
Here's a link to some photos of it when it first arrived in Stratford.

Edit: Not sure why the double post happened?
Both posts are still #423. At this rate I'll never make "Air Marshall". :D
