This Meteor was part of the last batch of seven to be built and served the RAE for continuation and instrument training, being repainted in this scheme towards the end of its career. Crashed not long after this photo, near to the tower at Farnborough after losing control during an asymmetric overshoot, on 14th February, 1975

The oldest surviving Meteor in the UK; only the former EE527, preserved in Argentina, is older (prototype DG202 at the RAF Museum was an F.9/40 and never officially named Meteor). Served A&AEE and wfu at Lasham in 1953, moving to the Midland Air Museum 20 years later. Lots to see here... (note the Fairey Ultra-Light Helicopter behind)

On loan from the RAF Museum at Cosford where she was displayed in a yellow colour scheme after use on photo chase work by A&AEE (see my 1983 shot at Cosford). Now restored to original 64 Sqdn colours and a highly appropriate exhibit at the Midland Air Museum as built here at Baginton by Armstrong Whitworth, like the Argosy from which this shot was taken
