Photo Comment

One of the 13 aircraft assembled on the eastern boundary at Southend for the nascent British Historic Aircraft Museum. Donated by the Swedish Air Force and flew in on 13th June 1967. Sadly, this museum came to nought but was resurrected as the Historic Aircraft Museum (Southend) in 1972 with 29640 passing into its care. In 2020 it is with the Midland Air Museum at Coventry.
