I am trying to discover the ‘fleet number‘ of JP5 XW405 circa Nov 1972. The aircraft was based at RAFC Cranwell and was the aircraft in which I solo’d on type.
(The airframe is presently on a pole outside Hartlepool College of Further Education!)
thank you
83 at Cranwell
61 at 1 F.T.S
61/J at 6 F.T.S Finningley.
