The photo shows G-AIDF on delivery to the British Historic Aircraft Museum at Southend who repainted it in RAF colours with it's original serial P6411. The aircraft was badly damaged in a gale on 5-9-1967. The BHAM folded in 1968/9 and the aircraft including G-AIDF were sold to the Historic Aircraft Museum (Southend ) Ltd. The company established a museum at Southend but G-AIDF was beyond repair and the remains were probably burnt around 1973. |
