XX306 is now preserved at the Exelby Services station off the A1(M) at Leeming Bar. It was the former RAF Scampton gate guard. It had flown its last sortie on 26 September 2012 and was transferred to RAF Shawbury for storage on 22 October the same year. After being selected as the new gate guard at Scampton, it moved to RAF Cranwell for refurbishment, before being moved back to Scampton on 11 August 2015. It was put up for auction in April 2023 and now found its new home just north of RAF Leeming. This photo is copyright © Berry Vissers, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
