Photo Comment

Seen parked outside Scottish Aviation's Prestwick factory, where it was designed and built. First flew in 1959 as G-APRS of Scottish Aviation Ltd who charted it out, mainly for work overseas. Entered RAF service as XT610, a Mark CC.2, in 1965, with the Empire Test Pilots School at Boscombe Down. Returned to civil life in 1975 with Fight One at Staverton, being used on mapping survey duties. Initially with Atlantic Air Transport in 1993, took up a new role as a heritage aircraft, assuming its first registration as G-APRS but in ETPS colours. Scrapped in 2017.
