When sadly and controversially this Beverley was scrapped at the RAF Museum in 1990 due to corrosion, it left only one of this memorable type (XB259) surviving in the world. XH124 first took to the air in Apr 1957 and served with 30 Sqn, 84 Sqn and 242 OCU, before arriving at Hendon for display in June 1968.
