In the early 1950 the adoption of a prone pilot was thought to offer the advantages of reduced drag (through elimination of the cockpit bulge) and better resistance to g-force swings when lying flat. In practice the difficulty of operating the controls outweighed these gains, especially after the development of special g-suits, and this plane was never flown solo from the forward, prone position.

This Meteor was previously A77-876 with the RAAF before returning to the UK and being allocated to the RAE at Llanbedr. It was used to chase target drones, hence, this extremely high-vis scheme. Now part of the very friendly and welcoming Boscombe Down Aviation Collection - Old Sarum Museum.
