HJ711 on the 4th September 1999, view from front left quarter showing
cannon bays, machine gun cartridge chutes, attachment of both props etc. |

View of HJ711 from directly in front of the aircraft. Cannon guides
are now in place (the cover for the cannon can be seen bottom left of
the image). Cannon bay doors (remember this aircraft is an NF.II, so no
bomb bay) were in the process of being attached, covered and doped. |
