This is the final flight version of B-HUI - so there's the signature of the final cockpit crew(Simon McGlynn, Nick Heard) that flew HUI to Bruntingthorpe.

As a local Hong Konger, the brushing 744 really marks an era of my childhood and is one of my earliest memories of flying - so getting the Brushing pax 744 has been on high priority since I start collecting 2 years ago and I am so glad that I get a chance to finanlly set my hands on her.
