Oh gosh, XS606.
Back end of 1993 I started at Boscombe Down as a Flight Test Engineer. Just after Christmas I was given my first task, paired up with a new ETPS graduate Test Pilot - which was evaluating some "keep her going safely and cheaply" engine mods on the Andover, with XS606 as the inevitable airframe. My logbook shows just over 12 hours on her.
She was a good bulletproof airframe, who'd done a lot of good service over the years. Sorry to see her go, but very glad without loss of life.
