Article in Air Pic 1968 I think about Oct Nov (from memory)
on the Brit says the prototype has only recently been scrapped after it became unsafe.
Depends on your definition of recently but it looks like you missed by about a year or so.

Thanks Gary......Had a browse round to see if I could pick up anything on it but so far no luck. Definitely not there when it was scrapped, almost certain of that.
Regards Nigel.

G-ALBO/7708M scrapped 12/6/1968 I believe.
St Athan was the first airshow that I attended 1960ish. My first film (photos) includes a pic of her at St Athan.
Brings back memories.
