Photographer's remark
(6.10.2011, 11:56 CET)
XM414 finished its operational service with No. 7 FTS based at Church Fenton in Yorkshire in 1988 after which it was sent to No. 1 School of Technical Training at Halton where it received the Maintenance Number 8996M. It remained at Halton for a number of years until it was purchased by Castlereagh Borough Council for a project known as The Flight Experience Workshop (The FEW). When the project folded XM414 went into storage at the Castlereagh Hills Golf Club premises.
In 2003 the UAS was approached by Castlereagh Borough Council and asked if it would be prepared to look after the aircraft on 'long-term' loan, the aircraft having been on loan ever since.
XM414 still carries the markings of its last service with the RAF, No.7 FTS.
My thanks to the Ulster Aviation Society for their hospitality
