Is that the old Air Contracters one? If so I had a few jump seat rides on that back in the day when I worked for them!

Re: A few from my workplace at EMA..

Think it still belonged to Airbus, it was March 2007, as I remember the main purpose of that part of the tour was a fly-by of Rolls Royce in Derby.
