Photographed parked up at Exeter Airport without engines sometime in the early 1990s (probably late 1991 or early '92). One of only 50 Heralds built this one made its first flight on 28 December 1967 and was delivered as PP-SDN to Sadia in Brazil. In 1973 she returned to the UK as G-BAVX with British Midland and then British Air Ferries. She was re-registered G-DGLD with Channel Express but I can't remember her actually being operated by them. She was Permanently wfu'd and de-registered on 19 June 1996.
