Remarks: | This was a former British United Airways 1-11 used by the RAE Bedford. It was purchased by the MOD in 1971, eventually becoming part of the QinetiQ fleet of trials aircraft. It was the first aircraft with a coloured 'glass' flight deck and was instrumental in the development of blind landing techniques. |
