This Hart was delivered to 2 Flying Training School Digby during Nov. 1935 with cn 4621 (subsequently changed to 6513 and then 6653). Transferred during June 1938 to No.24 Maintenance Unit Ternhill, Salop and later allocated the serial 1764M. By virtue of the fact that she had been withdrawn from front-line training at the outbreak of WWII meant that she kept her yellow scheme instead of being painted into camouflage markings.
