Most of the posts on this thread seem to concern the early marks of Meteor with a lot of mention of the Marks 4, 7 and 8. However not much mention of the night fighter versions 11, 12, 13 & 14, none of which in their operational configuration had ejector seats. I appreciate there were far fewer of these in service and they were a very different design to the single seat types and the seven. However were they not a lot heavier and underpowered like the rest! So what percentage of these took the quick route to the scrap yard?
