| Work on G-AVNE's tail
pylon continued through Summer 2011 with several areas of minor to
severe corrosion to be tackled. In some cases the affected panels
had to be patched (above left), or replaced, before being primed and
repainted. Mike Reading started cleaning the air intake particle separator
swirl tubes in G-AVNE's nose door on 15th October 2011. |
