Photo Comment

The later history of this aircraft has become confused with that of XS640, but it appears that it was sold to the RNZAF in 1976 as NZ7629 - see http://www.adf-serials.com.au/nz-serials/nzandover.htm. After withdrawal it became 3C-KKT then 9Q-CVC. Withdrawn from use, eventual fate unknown.
