My late father started his advanced flying training on 25 February 1953 with 203 AFS based at RAF Driffield in Yorkshire. He had this mishap on 09 April 1953. He was on a solo flight, exercise 14 which was for aerobatics according to his flight log. He was assigned Meteor F4 VT240 code O-25. On landing he was hit from behind by Meteor WL413 which removed the tail of Dads' aircraft. My Dad ran like hell away from his aircraft and only on turning round realised what had happened. VT240 was struck off charge on this date. My Dads caption for the photo is "Mating season for Meteor's"
