Very nice to see this beast at Lossiemouth yesterday. Atlantique ATL2 13 from Lorient/Lann-Bihoué pictured about to depart as FNY5117.

Lovely prop-blur and a very smart old aeroplane.

That green fencing looks quite substantial.

Thanks for posting. :clap:

Thanks Ian, great to see one of these again as it had been a while! Think it’s away home now but I may well be wrong there!

Update: As of 23/05/2024 it was still at Lossiemouth.
