Photo Comment

Built in 1944 by Scottish Aviation at Prestwick for RAF for use as radio-controlled aircraft for gunnery training. One of a number of Queen Bees which survived the war, but this is the only example to have been restored to flying condition. The c/n 1435 is also quoted for this airframe.
