Wearing the codes of 812 Squadron whilst operating on the carrier HMS Ocean, WB410's undercarriage collapsed on landing at Ringway. It was jacked up, repaired and later served 821 squadron. See other image at Ringway when modified in 1959 to Firefly U.9 drone role. This photo is copyright © R.A.Scholefield, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
