Sorry, it was unceremoniously broken up for scrap in 2003. There are however several other Tridents still around the country, when we have the 'Old Airliner Thread FT Do' in Britain we'll see how many Tridents and One-Elevens we can pick off
(and Britannias, and Viscounts, and VC-10s, and flights in Dragon Rapides ........ better allow a month)
Meanwhile here she is at Stansted; actually it was always kept clean and almost polished by the more aviation-minded ground staff.
