Photographer's remark
(16.4.2007, 22:24 CET)
From the Thunder and Lightnings web site - an ex-Saudi F.53 presented by BAe to Ferranti (later GEC, and now merged with BAE Systems!) in recognition of their pioneering work on the AI.23 AIRPASS radar of the Lightning. She was mounted on a plinth at the old Ferranti plant in the South Gyle area of Edinburgh. Upon the closure of the plant, the aircraft was donated to the DGAM. It is planned to mount the aircraft back on its plinth.
