Having said that I could live with the windscreen at a slightly rakish angle as pointed out by Alain (thanks Alain! :rolleyes:) I of course couldn't....so it's corrected with the help of a razor saw and a couple of thin wedges.  A few shots in better light, please ignore the shepherd's hut in the background....it was too heavy to move!! :D

Gotta admit that angle does look a heap better, but….. If I were the Ops boss I’d be having words with that ground handler, serious safety violation with the position of the external power carts cable. :hmmm:

Great photos!

I like the hut, it’s where P/O Brooker is taking a quick nap waiting for the phone call to scramble!

Man, the greenest grass I have ever seen! 
Glad the windscreen adjustment wasn’t too much trouble! Looked like a custom attempt to get a couple extra miles per hour on the ‘plane!

Call it artistic licence on behalf of the photographer! :P

That's what I did with mine., cut a slot at the front of the windshield to drop it, I used

a couple of wedge shaped decals to cover the gaps on the sides.

Look much better Max  :speak_cool:
