Photo Comment

Withdrawn from use on 10 December 1973 and cancelled on 8 February 1982 as permanently withdrawn from use. Restored as G-ARJB on 17 June 1996, and stored dismantled at Cumbernauld. It was still current in 2022 with a "No Flight" declaration dated 5 March 2019. It was stored at Little Rissington since at least 2008, and subsequently moved to a private site near Cirencester for storage. It was sold in November 2022 and moved to South Wales Aviation Museum for storage pending possible restoration.
