Having arrived at Duxford in January 1975 (and making the last ever Javelin flight in the process), XH897 was by this stage ready for a repaint. The faintly visible nose markings of "A" Fighter Test Squadron A&AEE were not retained after the repaint.

This Flying Flat Iron was built to FAW7 standards and delivered to 25 Sqn. at Waterbeach in 1959, later serving also with 33 and 5 Sqns. After conversion to FAW9 it joined A&AEE at Boscombe Down where work was found on various test programmes, including Concorde, accounting for the unusual red & white scheme. After retirement it was acquired by the IWM in 1974.

The Javelin was a T tail delta wing all weather interceptor and fighter that first flew in 1951 and a total of 436 were built. Early flight testing was beset with problems and the type did not enter service until 1956 and most were short lived in service. This example is seen at the Yorkshire Air Museum.

The only time I ever saw a Javelin fly (other than in school athletics), XH897 of "A" Fighter Test Squadron A&AEE is seen here departing after static display at the 1971 Coltishall BoB Day. Now of course a well-known exhibit at Duxford. Taken with a borrowed 400mm of dubious quality, but a unique slide in my collection.
