Built as a J/1 Autocrat, registered G-AJDY 14 March 1947. It was cancelled 29 April 1981 as PWFU. Restored 13 January 1989 but again cancelled by the CAA 13 January 1999. Rebuilt with a new fuselage and painted in RAF camouflage scheme with invasion stripes, with the false serial 'MT182', for which display exemption had been issued 23 October 2012. It was restored to the register 26 September 2012 and it seems to have been during that rebuild that it was converted to a J/1N Alpha. Although still registered June 2025, its Permit expired 30 September 2016. This photo is copyright © Mike Cain, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
