Eastern Airways civil passenger Jetstream 41 aircraft on crew transfer operations for the RAF. SCO 9702.
The Jetstream 41's stretch added 16 feet ( m) to the fuselage, consisting of an 8 foot 3 in ( m) plug forward of the wing and a 7 feet 9 inches ( m) plug to the rear; the fuselage design was all new and did not contain any parts of the old fuselage. The new design demanded a wing with increased span, which also included reworked ailerons and wing is also mounted below the fuselage, so that it did not carry through the cabin aisle, also allowing increased baggage capacity in the larger wing root fairings.
