Exactly 4 months later on December 1,1980 the aircraft hit HMS Invincible's ski ramp during a flypast for the press. It crashed into the English Channel off the Lizard, Cornwall, the pilot ejecting successfully. This photo is copyright © Jerry Hughes, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
