XL427 was completed in September 1962 before being equipped to carry the Blue Steel missile and issue to 83 Sqdn. In 1969 it was transferred to the Scampton Wing and 617 Sqdn and is seen here with 230 OCU. In August 1982 it was retired to RAF Machrihanish for fire practice as 8756M and at one point had its undercarriage deliberately blown off in an explosion

XA897 crashed after a very heavy landing in bad weather at Heathrow on October 1, 1956. It had undertaken a flight to Australia and New Zealand and is seen here on its return via Darwin. The crash was controversial because AVM Harry Broadhurst, who was onboard, overruled orders to divert. Broadhurst and the pilot ejected from the crippled jet leaving the rest of the crew to perish.
