First flew in it 14 Apr 1968 Capt Dave Hinchliffe Survex from Changi 11.40 Day. last flight in it from 205 was 7 Oct 1970 capt Bob Parratt Ex Logex from Whenuapai ".00day 7.20 Night.
Next time was as an AEW from Bitteswell to Kemble to be painted, on 2 Jun 1972 30mins day capt Sqn Ldr Green. Last time for me was 1 Aug 1972 Sqn Ldr Arnaud from Lossie to Kinloss as a fully fitted AEW 10 Mins day. All as a Sgt AEOp, the only AEOp or AEO on 8 Sqn at that time (AE Ldr?). Then on to Nimrods - another story
