Ex 3 CAACU at Exeter, registered on 8 July 1963 as G-ASKC. Used for the film '633 Squadron' flying as HJ898 H-TG and following filming, arrived at Staverton for the Skyfame collection in December 1963. The registration was cancelled on 3 September 1964 following an accident and the aircraft remained at Staverton in a deteriorating condition until moved to Duxford when Skyfame closed in 1978.
