| Description |
c/n CBAF.1646. Built December 1941. Flew operationally with 611sqn, 242sqn, 222sqn, 64sqn and finally 118sqn. In November 1943 it became an instructional airframe with No2 School of Technical Training at RAF Cosford, then moving to Hednesford with No6 SOTT. Withdrawn in 1948, it became a recruiting airframe until going on display at RAF Credenhill in 1955 as a gate guard. In 1967 it went to Henlow for use in taxiing scenes in the Battle of Britain film, which concluded late in 1968. In 1972 it joined the collection at RAF Colerne. Here it was restored and returned to genuine 222sqn markings coded 'ZD-F'. It then moved to St Athan when Colerne closed in 1975. In 1982 it moved to the Manchester Air & Space Museum where it remained on display until 1995. It was then taken to Rochester and completely rebuilt by the Medway Aircraft Preservation Society. This was completed in 1997 and it then went on display in the Historic Main Hangars at the RAF Museum, Hendon, London, UK. 22-3-2015 |
