The Ferranti Flying Unit based at Edinburgh Airport used this night-fighter Meteor, which was ex WM261, between 1960 and 1973 to test radar equipment and to transport company personnel. The paint scheme of white with a red stripe led to the aircraft being nicknamed 'Mentadent' after the brand of toothpaste.

This Armstrong Whitworth-built Meteor was allocated RAF serial WM296, but it never flew as such. Instead, it was transferred to the Armée de l'Air immediately after delivery, for use by the Centre d'Essais en Vol (CEV) for guided weapons testing. Withdrawn from use in mid 1985, the aircraft became part of the collection of the Musée Aéronautique de Champagne (Brienne-le-Château) in 1988. By 2001, it had moved to the Musée Européen de l'Aviation de Chasse, as seen here. Date and location of the picture are unknown.

German caption: 'Royal Air Force aircraft in training in flight over Heyford Aerodrome. Next Saturday there will be a large air display near London.' This was likely King George V's Silver Jubilee Review at Mildenhall on 6 July 1935. The unit only flew the Hart from June 1934 until early 1936. Nearest to the camera ship is K3965.
