Pictured whilst serving the Lightning Training Flight, based at RAF Binbrook, this Lightning had earlier seen service with 111 and 5 Sqns. Later performed as 11 Sqn's display aircraft and was withdrawn in 1.87 with 3212 hours after a period back at the LTF, being scrapped next year. Also see my 1974 flying shot back in the days when she was still in the classic natural metal finish with 111 Sqn

The HD-34 was derived from earlier experimental versions as an aerial mapping platform, flying in 2.57. Air France even considered ordering 24 as feederliners. A high aspect-ratio wing gave long endurance and good stability for photo-mapping, the type remaining in service with the IGN till 1985. Of the eight built, three survive including this one preserved at Creil by the local aeroclub. Another is stored by the Musée de l'Air and the third is still potentially flyable with a historic organisation out of Melun-Villaroche

The HD-34 was derived from earlier experimental versions as an aerial mapping platform, flying in 2.57. Air France even considered ordering 24 as feederliners. A high aspect-ratio wing gave long endurance and good stability for photo-mapping, the type remaining in service with the IGN till 1985. Of the eight built, three survive including this one preserved at Creil by the local aeroclub. Another is stored by the Musée de l'Air and the third is still potentially flyable with a historic organisation out of Melun-Villaroche

A unique Hunter which served as one of the RNAF's 20 T.7s (the only one in camouflage) between 1959 and 1965 when it joined the NLR for experimental work. Last flight 22nd January 1980; unfortunately plans to keep it in flyable condition failed and it was scrapped. The cockpit was saved along with the wings, the latter now in a composite airframe at Long Marston made up from about six different aircraft but based upon XJ714
