Now there's a challenge!

Pip Pip ON

Cosford has XM598, which was the Prime aircraft for Black Buck 1, which returned early due to DV Window/Pressurisation problems. XM607 carried on and finished the raid, so Hendon should do the swap.

The Civvy Contractors on Waddington did a very good external refinish on XM607 last year , so she doesn't look as bad as she probably is.
