Photo Comment

Seen on a flying visit to Fields Aircraft Services, part of the Hunting group. The NDN-1T was designed by Desmond Norman famous for the BN-2 Islander aircraft. Three were built and operated by Specialist Flying Training. NDN put forward this aircraft for the RAF training contract to replace the Jet Provost. If chosen the aircraft would be built by Hunting. Sadly for NDN the contract was awarded to the Tucano. Built in 1984 and registered G-SFTS on 29 Jul 1883. Sold to the USA on 07 May 1992.
