Used at St Athan for ground instruction as 8254M from 22 August 1975. It moved to Staverton for storage on 27 June 1985 where it was registered as N86EA. It then went to Gatwick Aircraft Museum at Charlwood on 12 November 1989, back to St Athan in 2013, and then to CAHC at Newquay in December 2019. Following the closure of CAHC it was moved to Lancashire for restoration.

A well traveled Pembroke. It has been part of the collections of Staverton since 1985, to Gatwick in 1989, to St. Athan in 2013 and St. Mawgan in 2019.

Ex RAF Pembroke C.1 XK885

Following the death in Jan 2013 of the museum's owner Peter Vallance, some exhibits went to other museums and collections. This Pembroke was one of them, moving on to Horizon Aircraft Services at St. Athan in Sep 2013.

This was my place of work where even taking a camera into the premises was a disciplinary offence. I managed to snatch this photograph at lunch-time when no-one was about. In 1989 this aircraft went to the Vallance By-Ways Collection, which became the Gatwick Aviation museum ten years later.
