Gate guard at the now closed RAF Uxbridge. Used in the Battle of Britain movie in 1968. Subsequently sold off and returned to the air in July 1991 as G-XVIA. Then sold to the USA and registered as N382RW in 1995. Destroyed in 1998 when it flew into a canyon wall in cloud. Bits were then shipped back to the UK and rebuilt as a high back Mk IX with a RR Merlin instead of a Packard Merlin, rounded wingtips instead of clipped and a smaller rounded rudder. Now flying as G-PBIX in USAAF colours coded WZ-RR.

In April 1973 three Boeing 720s made their way to Rhodesia, circumventing the UN sanctions against the country. VP-YNM was one of these aircraft seen here at Salisbury a few months after arriving with sisterships YNL and YNN after Air Rhodesia clandestinely acquired three of Calair's five 720s. It started its service life with Eastern Air Lines in August 1961. In December 1970 it joined the fleet of short-lived German charter airline Calair.
