Photo Comment

Operated by 207 Squadron. One of two communications squadrons based at Northolt. My Dad was one of the pilots on this squadron. Delivered to the RAF in 1954. To the UK civil register as G-DHDV on 26Oct98. And still current in 2023. 207 Squadron disbanded in June 1984 with the retirement of the Devon's. It reformed on Tucano's as part of 1 FTS between 2002 and 2012 and again in 2019 at RAF Marham as the F-35B OCU.
