Aircraft of No 23 Sqn at RAF Coltishall. See photo 723025 for side-on view. Written off at Nicosia, Cyprus on 24 April 1963, then as a Javelin FAW.9 with No 29 Sqn. Aircraft slewed to port on landing due to brake fault. The pilot raised the wheels to prevent slamming into air traffic control hut. Photo from: Air Ministry (UK)
