Photo Comment

This CT-133 is painted to represent T-33 51-17415 which served the 406th FBW at Manston from 1952, then later the 20th FBW at Wethersfield and the 81st FBW at Bentwaters before being struck off charge at Mildenhall in 1963 and sold for scrap by Staravia at Lasham. It is really G-BYOY which was originally CAF 21231 before carrying four different US N-registrations.
