Photo Comment

This aircraft has carried a number of different codes during its time with the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight. However there is one major difference in this photograph to the state of the aircraft today, the absence of the mid-upper gun turret. One was located at a Woodford Airshow as a result of a jokey request from the commentator. PA474 was built at Chester by Vickers-Armstongs in September 1945.
