Photo Comment

Allocated USAF 66-8567 but not used, to RAF XV217 as a C1 delivered Nov-1967, converted to C3 mid-1982, converted to C3P May-1986, withdrawn from use Jul-2010 and sold, roaded to Hixon Jan-2011 where it was scrapped Sep-2014. It is serving here as the Red Arrows support aircraft, a dull grey aircraft on a dull grey day!
