RAE 1-11's

The RAE have three BAC 1-11's still active

ZE432
ZE433
ZH763

All three based at Boscombe Down. I dont know if ZE433 still has a different nose as it was used for the Eurofighter Typhoon radar trials. In a private museum at Boscombe Down they have the nose section of XX919 which was broken up a few years ago.

Another aircraft XX105 which was the oldest flying 1-11 until June this year is also stored there since being withdrawn in June 2003.

I cant remember which magazine it was in but there was recently an article entitled '1-11's in Uniform' giving details and history of 1-11's that have served in the military role.
