This Mossie was built towards the end of 1945 as a B.Mk.35, probably by Percival, but later converted by Brooklands to TT.35 configuration with a target-towing winch in the bomb-bay, and guards on the tail surfaces and tailwheel. In 1963 it was registered G-ASKC, repainted as HJ898 (coded HT-G) for use in the film "633 Squadron", which was mostly shot in Scotland, with the aircraft operating from Dalcross. It now hangs from the roof in AirSpace at IWM Duxford. This photo is copyright © Alastair T. Gardiner, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
