Former Ghana AF Islander
I think those nice chaps who run the spares reclamation business at Biggin Hill have been having a bit of a clearout of their hangar. Noted on Friday 12th June was one of the three ex-Ghana Air Force Islanders that they have. One is apparently now in Air Alderney colours, another in a sealed container, so by process of elimination I think this one might be G361

Its gonna rain, its gonna rain till the levee breaks, a tidal wave of fear and pain washes us away, another fight into the night until nothing else remains, how do we find harbour from the Hurricane?

Jon,
I checked the c/n on this one last year. G361 is correct.

Jon,
Great photo mate. I am aware of the Air Alderney colours one this should be Ex G362, not sure if it’s still here was supposed to have been operational by now.
G360 and G363 should also be present, I thought there was a total of 4?
Can anybody shed any light?
Thanks
Ben

G360 and G363 are dismantled in shipping containers.
