A colleague at work [a Scot, but I won't hold that against him] was looking up some places he knew in his youth and came across some photos of Errol airfield. In one there is apuicture of a fairly sad looking Gannet. You can see it on Google Earth, but the imagery is fairly old. Anyone know if it's still there, or if not, what became of it?

Presumably still there given that date.

Apparently it's the former Lossiemouth gate guard.
What if... I had a brain?

Thanks - I'll let him know. Pity it appears to just be rotting away.
