On display at RAFM Cosford. The Jetstream was powered by a pair of 921 hp Turbomeca Astazou XVI C2 turboprops. Inducted into the RAF on 12 Sep 1973, the T.1 served as a multi-engine trainer with the Central Flying School. This is one of 26 T.1s that was on RAF strength. It has the emblem of No. 45 (R) Sqn "Flying Camels" on the fuselage, which flew the type as a Multi-Engined Training Squadron (METS) from 1992 under No. 3 FTS at RAF Cranwell. The T.1 was retired from RAF service on 19 Mar 2004. This aircraft made its final flight to the museum on 22 Mar 2004.
