Photo Comment

Delivered to the RAF as Harrier GR.1 XV753 in 1969. Converted to a GR3 in 1973. To 1SoTT Halton as ground trainer 9075M in 1990 then to the Royal Navy at Culdrose for use as ground trainer A2691 in 1994. To Predannack fire school by 2008 then to Newquay for preservation in 2013. Sadly the Cornwall Aviation Heritage Centre at Newquay, has been forced to close by Cornwall Council in 2023 and the future of its aircraft are in doubt.
