Departing Heathrow (EGLL) for her final resting place at Durham Tees Valley Airport (EGNV) to be used as a fire training aid.

After many years of smoke abuse, training firefighters, she was left in a bit of a mess.

Now, at the end of its useful life, the company has kindly agreed to donate the aircraft to the North East Aircraft Museum, Sunderland, for relocation and preservation in a bid to save and preserve the last complete Hawker Siddeley HS.121 Trident 1C anywhere in the world.

For anyone interested, there is a some pics of her final move here:
