You may notice a Union Flag sticking out of the top of the flight deck. It wasn't because the Rank Organisation was being patriotic, it had been impounded by HM Customs. The orange/white boards are hiding a length of stout chain, one end firmly padlocked to the left main undercarriage leg and the other end padlocked to the end of the old Pier A at Manchester (MAN). It's also the first time I've seen a passenger DC-7 with a tailpost inserted.
