Delivered to the Fleet Air Arm in October 1960 and served with several squadrons before going into storage at Fleetlands and finally, in 1967, to the School of Aircraft Handling at Culdrose. Sold to the Cornwall Aero Park (later Flambards) in 1976 and painted in 1991 in the markings of 807 Sqn with whom it served in the early 1960s. Bought by the Southampton Hall of Aviation (now Solent Sky) in March 1999 and in storage with them at time of upload pending display at the museum when space becomes available.
