Article in Air Pic 1968 I think about Oct Nov (from memory) :worried: 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.

Cheers Paul
