Marham 25-01-18 goodbye MacRobert's Reply

ZD741 departed for the final flight, to Leeming.

First day out with the 'new' (second hand) Nikon TC-14 teleconverter on the camera - giving me about 450mm focal length - hopefully I wont often need it ( I must remember to keep the Aperture wide open for a good shutter speed)

From what I hear, ZD741 MacRobert's Reply is not scheduled to be broken up any time soon. So she's likely to go into storage for the time being. Fingers, toes, eyes, legs etc crossed that she survives the RTP vultures and can be preserved as a static exhibit in future.
