Photo Comment

Ex XH767. Last operated by 2288 OCU at Binbrook and retired in 1967. Displayed by Worcester ATC until the late 1980s when moved to the Avon Aviation Museum at Monkton Farleigh, Wiltshire. When that museum closed, the aircraft moved in 1992 to the City of Norwich Aviation Museum and again in 2000 to the Yorkshire Air Museum at Elvington. After several years of external display and storage the aircraft was donated to the East Midlands Aeropark at Castle Donnington in early 2025 where it is undergoing restoration at time of upload.
