Delivered to the RAF in June 1948 and flown for many years as a communications aircraft by the RAE at Farnborough. Painted in the 'Raspberry Ripple' colour scheme by 1977, retired in 1994, it became G-BWFB in July 1995. Sold in the US as N959VP in December 1997 but never left the UK and cancelled from the US register in August 2000. Believed to remain stored in Warwickshire at time of upload.
