Five days after this shot was taken this aircraft was destroyed in a crash on take-off from Duxford. Fortunately both crew survived with only fairly minor injuries. According to the accident report the aircraft was pitched up too steeply on rotation, sank back with the jet pipe scraping the runway then stalled, cartwheeled, and caught fire.
