Photo Comment

Began her career in 9.43 with the RCAF and put into service by the RAE at West Freugh in May 1969 as 'KG661'; in 1979 it was realised that this identity actually belonged to c/n 13478 so current serial ZA947 was allocated instead! On the strength of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight since Sep 1993 and used for multi-engine training.
