Photo Comment

This is still here, on plinth near the threshold of Runway 26. The aircraft is a composite of (mainly) Danish Hunter T7 ET-272 and Hunter FGA9 XJ690, hence the single seat nose! The aircraft has a plaque commemorating the late Mike Carlton, the founder of Hunter One/Jet Heritage, who was killed in a Republic Seabee crash in Zimbabwe in August 1986, along with his wife.
