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.

This aircraft was TOC by the FAA in 1952 and served until being placed in storage at Kemble during 1966. It has been part of the FAA Museum's collection since 1971 and has been stored as part of the Reserve Collection at Cobham Hall since 1999. It is presently undergoing restoration, hence the fuel tank on the floor and the gaping hole behind the cockpit.

This aircraft was TOC by the FAA in 1952 and served until being placed in storage at Kemble during 1966. It has been part of the FAA Museum's collection since 1971 and has been stored as part of the Reserve Collection at Cobham Hall since 1999. It is presently undergoing restoration, hence the fuel tank on the floor and the gaping hole behind the cockpit.

This appropriately registered Meatbox is painted to represent 'Halestorm', a MiG-killer flown by Sgt George Hale during the Korean War. Its real identity is VZ467 and it made the RAF's last Meteor flight before being retired in 1982. Placed in storage as a spare for the RAF's Vintage Pair display team, it was sold and registered G-METE on 5 November 1991, making its first post-restoration flight in 1994. Acquired by Temora Aviation Museum in 2001 and re-registered VH-MBX on 30 October that year.
