The view from Car Park 2 G-ARVJ Vickers VC-10-1101 is seen here on the stand at London Heathrow - taken from the top level of Car Park 2, a favourite vantage point of mine. Originally one of the BOAC fleet, from 1975 to 1981 the aircraft was operated by BA on behalf of the Ruler of Qatar, under a wet-lease arrangement. The aircraft was painted in Gulf Air livery and was sometimes used as a standby aircraft for them. G-ARVJ c/n 812 - Vickers VC-10-1101 - delivered new to BOAC in April 1964, incorporated into the British Airways fleet ten years later. Leased to the Ruler of Qatar, from 1975 to 1981, the aircraft was then sold to the RAF where it became ZD493 and was used as a source of spare parts for the RAF's VC-10 fleet at Brize Norton.
