It had been in camouflage so I hope it has been stripped down for repainting. Delivered to the RAF on 17 Mar 1955. It never flew with a front line squadron instead being operated by the Air Fighting Development Squadron before becoming an instructional airframe in 1960 as 7770M at St Athan. Moved to Halton for ground instruction in Apr 1977. Sold to the museum in 1999 and had been repainted in 43 Squadron markings in 2008.

This is really 54-2163. Painted in fake USAF markings as 54-005 / HA an F-100C of the 174th TFS 185th TFG Iowa ANG during the Vietnam War. This aircraft actually only saw service with the French Air Force as 42163. When WFU it was stored at RAF Sculthorpe in 1977. It was transferred to the museum in 1978.

Like a number of aircraft at this museum it desperately needs a little TLC. Based with wing F16 at Uppsala from 1961 to 1976 it was donated to the IWM at Duxford in 1977. It has been on on long term loan in Dumfries since Aug 2005.

This is the escape pod of F-111E 68-0060 / UH from the 20th TFW based at RAF Upper Heyford. On 05 Nov 1975 during a low level run over the Wainfleet range a bird penetrated the windshield causing a catastrophic failure to the windshield and canopy. The crew ejected the pod and survived. The capsule with the crew inside was picked up by a helicopter from the 67th ARRS and flown to RAF Woodbridge.
