Built by Blackburn Aircraft in August 1943 and operated from aircraft carriers with 836 Squadron until November 1944. Registered to Fairey Aviation of Hayes, Middlesex from 1947 to 1949 which probably explains how it escaped the scrap heap. Became an air show favorite for generations of enthusiasts and still maintained airworthy into the 21st century.

Here sharing the apron with a BEA Viscount and Dakota, this was the second period Starways owned the aircraft from October 1956 to December 1963. Seen at Heathrow (EGLL) in 1962 with this eye-catching yellow and blue livery. Last assignment was as a pollution control aircraft with Air Atlantique at Coventry, after which it was retired in 2001 and preserved with false serial FZ626 at RAF Lyneham.
