Can you remember if the aircraft that caught fire on start up at Tengah was written off. {never seen a grow bag run so fast}
Presumably you refer to XS928, which was declared Cat3 after damage caused by ground fire after fuel vented onto the wing in 1970.
It was airlifted by a Belfast back to Warton for new wings to be fitted, and then had a long career and eventually became one of the last Lightnings to fly being one of the 4 used by BAE after RAF service, transferring to Warton on 14/6/88. BAE began a major on it in 1991, but didn’t complete it and instead it was withdrawn from use and used as a spares source.
It still survives, now being the gate guardian at BAE Warton.
