Post by REF » Mon Jan 14, 2019 12:26 pm

Hi All

Can you please help ID a few unknowns for me please.

Unknown type, fuselage section in June 2017

Cockpit section, possibly a BA 767 in June 2017, noted again in Dec 2017. (This is NOT G-BNWS) It might be G-BNWL but I cannot confirm this.

In August 2017, Next to TF-AAE was what looked like the nose and tail less hulk of a BA B767.

Not sure which aircraft it was.

The top two pics of the BA763 are that of G-BNWY.

Scrapped at St Athan, the fuselage sections were roaded to Kemble in 06/07.17 for amalgamation with sections from the regular G-BNWS. Roaded out to unknown destinations over the following months.

Above confirmed by SWAG (credit due) and some pics on aviation sites.

Makes sense as I saw G-BNWS during the same visit.

Many thanks for that, it can't be BNWL as you said that was roaded into Kemble on 6 July 2017. I took the photo on 8 JUNE 2017 which is before it arrived.

Cheers

Initial post was for unknown time in June or July ‘17

SWAG clarify that ‘WY (Yankee) was broken up circa May 2017, with fuselage sections to Kemble 07/06/17.

The dates now tie up

Unless I am being stupid I can't see a tie up. My post clearly states I took them in June 2017. I later confirmed it was June 8th 2017 as I couldn't remember initially which day. I still do not know the ID of the 767 in my photos!

Thanks

G-BNWY fuselage sections went to Kemble on 7 June 2017, the day before your pictures.

The cockpit section in the final shot could be EI-STD.
