Hi Tarnish, What a sad end to a delightful aircraft. I first saw '606' at Greenham Common on 26th June 1977 which must have been one of the Air Tattoo's. Great shame. Bill

Saw XS606 on the production line at Woodford in (I think) 1965 on a school trip, had only just started spotting, was one of my first logs. Remember G-ATAM 748 was my first G-AT that day!

Shame about this one. I always hope things like this will return for preservation, but obviously not to be for this one!
First seen 14/08/82 Middle Wallop for me. I was nearly 8 years old and had been spotting for about a year and a half!

talking about things for preservation, do we have any HS748s preserved ? I know the Indian Air Force is currently retiring their fleet, would be good to get one to Duxford or similar !
