Farnborough's Mk 4, which was delivered to Strathallan about 6 months after I was posted in, was called Zebedee. One of my air traffic control colleagues told me he went to Gibraltar in it and flew all the way backwards in the rear turret.
He also told me he'd been a Mustang pilot during WW2 and had been temporarily based a Funtington ( near Chichester) just before D -Day, but that's another story!
