QP.

A newspaper cutting that I had not seen, great spelling of RAF Turnhill!

A few extra details: departed HSA Kingston March 1969, first flown at Dunsfold on 28th May 1969 by John Farley, delivered to RAF Wittering on 2nd July 1969, flown by Harrier Conversion Team.

Returned to HSA Kingston, somewhat bent and battered in October 1969, first flown (again) at Dunsfold on 22nd October 1970 by Andy Jones.

XV751 had a long and largely uneventfull life with the RAF, my last sighting was on 20th May 1989 at Cambrai, France.

Ciarain.
