Photo Comment

The last ever RAF Sycamore public display. Operated by 32 squadron. Made the last RAF Sycamore flight just a few weeks later, flying into the Torbay Aircraft Museum on 11th August 1972. Moved on when the museum closed in 1988 and was last reported as being in Wales. Sightings of "XG544" in Switzerland are probably of HB-RXB which is painted as such.
