Last flown by the RAE to test the development of automatic thrust control systems for delta-wing aircraft. Following withdrawal the aircraft spent a short time on the fire dump at Colerne before being rescued and taken to Finningley for restoration with maintenance serial 7868M. Later moved to Cosford and after further restoration in1982 at Brize Norton, to the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry. Following the closure of the museums Air and Space Hall in 2021 the aircraft moved to the Boscombe Down collection at Old Sarum.

Built locally in 1953 at Woodford for experimental purposes to test the delta wing configuration for the up coming Vulcan bomber. The Avro 707 was a one third scale model for the bomber.

Moved in 2022 to the Boscombe Down Aviation Collection at Old Sarum.
