Although marked as XG168, a Hunter FR.10, this is actually XG172. First flight was in 1956, then serving with 19 and 263 Sqds, then 229 OCU and 1 TWU before retirement to the Trade Management Training Squadron at RAF Scampton in September 1984 as 8832M. Purchased by Everett Aero in 1995, and sold on to The Jet Centre at North Weald in 1997 for potential return to flight. But instead went to Classic Jets at Exeter then Norwich in 2001. Moved from the Norwich Aviation Museum to the entrance of the West Raynham Business Park in May 2025

Looking absolutely forlorn after an undercarriage collapse, this poor old Hunter just doesn't look right at all. Like many F.1s, it had short service career, first flying in October 1954 but relegated to ground instructional duties by the end 1957. It was consigned to Aberporth and then eventually here to the Anglia Hotel alongside the A17 in 2005

Built in 1963, this Gnat flew most of its career with 4 FTS at RAF Valley, although it also spent a short period with the CFS. In April 1977 it was taken out of service at Valley and used for spares to maintain the active Gnat fleet. At the end of that year 1977, allocated 8578M, it was placed on display on the station. Replaced by a Hunter, she arrived at Newark during December 2000 and was fully restored

Built as T.7 XL605 in 1958, this Hunter led the Blue Diamonds of 92 Sqdn and also served with 66 Sqdn and 229 OCU. Converted to T.70 spec in 1966, it was loaned to the Royal Saudi AF, then given to the Royal Jordanian AF in 1968. Swapped back to the UK in 1974 in exchange for an FR.10, it was refurbished, assigned the new serial XX467 and served with 229 OCU and TWU until retiring in 1983. Eventually, registered as G-TVII and after various ownership changes, the aircraft became an exhibit at the Newark Air Museum in May 2017. Recently repainted into the splendid Blue Diamonds colours

Built as an F.51 for the Royal Danish Air Force, E-409 first flew in March 1956 and was delivered to Vaerlose in Denmark to serve with Esk 724 in August of that year.

Built in 1952 as a standard Canberra B.2, this aircraft spent its entire career as a trial aircraft. Initially, Armstrong Siddeley used it for Sapphire engine afterburner trials for the Javelin. It then moved to Ferranti for radar nose testing for the future Buccaneer. At Boscombe Down's A&AEE, it was adapted for de-icing trials, spraying water onto a trailing aircraft for filming. Later used for air-to-air photography, it was retired in 1983, sent to RAF Abingdon for repair training, and was finally preserved by the Newark museum in November 1985

This Canberra flew with 207 and 35 Sqdn from 1954. Selected as one of nine B.2s to be converted to T.11 for training radar operators destined for the Gloster Javelin, it had the nose of WH651 fitted with A.I. radar. Following a brief period at 228 OCU, it joined the Target Facilities Squadron at West Raynham, redesignated as 85 Sqdn in 1963 and relocated to Binbrook. It underwent further modification to T.19 and later operated with 7 Sqdn at St Mawgan before retirement in 1979. After being sold to BAC for potential export, donated to Newark in 1985
