S1596 Maybe twenty years ago a photo appeared in probably FlyPast rather than Aeroplane Monthly of N248 on the back of a truck parked at a truck stop / café I think it said on the old Great North Road. Of course that's been the A1 for many years. Nothing else was known about the photo as far as I can recall. The best guess then by our group was that it was on the way to a scrap yard because the RAF big wigs of the day wanted to lose the High Speed Flight down as quickly as possible.
Supermarine S6
N 248 is in the Solent Sky museum, S6B
S 1595 is in the Science Museum. What happened to S6B
