This Meteor was part of the last batch of seven to be built and served the RAE for continuation and instrument training, being repainted in this scheme towards the end of its career. Crashed not long after this photo, near to the tower at Farnborough after losing control during an asymmetric overshoot, on 14th February, 1975
