In Channel Airways rather lack-lustre colour scheme, showing its ex-Olympic Airways origins. Purchased by Channel in February 1970. Sold to Dan-Air in April 1972 following the collapse of Channel Airways in February 1972. Stored with the Science Museum at Wroughton in 2022.

2nd prototype Comet, built 1950. Dismantled at Hatfield March 1957, relocated to Farnborough for RAE radio test work. To aid this, the fin from Comet 1XB XM829 (msn 06021) was fitted, ex-Stansted Fire School. When the RAE purchased Comet 4 G-APDF as XV814, G-ALZK was used as a mock-up to trial test equipment installation. Since it's own cockpit had been stripped it was fitted with that from C.2 XK669 (06024) ex-Brize Norton. It left Farnborough for Woodford in the early 70s for use in the Nimrod programme and was scrapped there c.1975. Note Provost T.1 fuselage WV577 "22" alongside, ex-ETPS.

Delivered new in December 1959 and scrapped at EGLL in July 1972. The thing that stands out in this view is how the fuselage frames are telegraphing through the skin. Maybe a function of being unpressurized with the weight off the nose wheel? I flew on one of these once from EBBR to EGLL. Quite the hot-rod!

A poor quality shot, but useful as it illustrates a little known short-term lease prior to MEA receiving its own aircraft beginning 19 December 1960. This lease ran from 1 October, with the aircraft entering service on 30 October, so here likely on a crew training mission.
