Wearing a slightly modified scheme for the 2000 season. This jet was destroyed in a mid air collision with XX253 on March 23rd 2010. The team were on Springhawk at Kastelli Air base on Crete. The two aircraft were the Synchro Pair and collided during the Opposition Barrel Roll. XX233 crashed with the pilot ejecting safely and a damaged XX253 diverted to Heraklion along with the rest of the team.
