This aircraft is recorded as having made an emergency landing on the disused airfield at RAF Boulmer, Northumberland on 16 October 1963, after the engine failed. The failure was due to a sick bag that had been thrown out by the previous student before the engine was shut down. It had been ingested and damaged the compressor. Having been delivered in 1961, the aircraft's flying career seems to have been over by 1968. This photo is copyright © Fergal Goodman, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
