Photo Comment

Adopted as the RAF's basic trainer in 1953 the Provost was the last piston-engined aircraft to perform that role. This particular aircraft was delivered to No.22 FTS at RAF Syerston as WV562 in 1954 and served until 1959 when she went to RAF Henlow as an instructional airframe and received this non-flying serial. 1n 1980 she was transferred to the RAF Museum for display.
