All the effort rebuilding the Belevere at Odiham, (I remember watching the ground runs with windsocks on the blades) was rewarded with it going into the MU at Seletar as the war reserve.
The final flypast was in March 1969. The above post is correct and I have one taken of them taken from Changi as they toured the Island.
Immediately after the flypast the were all scrapped including the war reserve which joined a sister aircraft with the same serial number, probably XG455.
