Well, I'm certainly considering it as a companion to my Trident Society BEA HS-121. Everyone is a-twitter over the AC version, but I think I'll stick to GJ for the Trident series.

Is this a different registration from the Aero Classics? If it is I would then consider it!

No, it's exactly the same registration - G-AVFB. Probably, both AC and GJ chose this one as it's the machine preserved at Duxford in this livery! However, if GJ have any sense, considering the AC version is already on sale, they should note this thread and change the registration letters to anything between G-AVFA-'FH. After that, BEA changed to the speedjack livery with the first Trident 2 in that livery being G-AVFI. Of course it would make even MORE sense if Gemini switched this to their Trident ONE mould with a G-ARP* registration!

I don't mean to be vulgar, but is that a pubic hair on the stabilizer?!

I already have my AC version and very nice it is too, although I do also like the GJ Tridents.

Are you calling GJ a bunch of wankers? I saw that too, but just assumed it was a "zinc" crack in the stabilizer...
