This is former RAF Hunter F4 XE704 which was converted to Hunter T72 and then delivered to the Chilean Air Force in 1974 as J-736. After being wfu from service in Chile, the aircraft was used as a chase plane by Embraer. In 2018, it returned to the UK and has since been in use with HHA, but without a civil registration. This aircraft is a so-called MRCOA (military registered civil-owned aircraft). This photo is copyright © Jonathan Verschuuren, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
