The T7 pic shows this was fitted with the extended nose cone of the U16s which if I remember correctly, were originally F8s. Just a surmise; maybe they modded it with U16 aerials to familiarise new pilots with the handling characteristics. Note the middle picture shows a Rushton towed target stowed overwing on the Meteor.
Not sure if the T7 in the third picture is the Llanbedr one or the Farnborough one; the Farnborough one crashed in '75. I don't think it's WA662.
