Meteor ailerons had either spring tabs or servo tabs. The spring tabs a/c were much more responsive in roll at higher speeds. From what I remember all the T7s I flew had spring tabs, as had most F8s. The F3s and F4s had servos. But I am an old fart (though not as old as Danny) and stand to be corrected on all of these points.
