Aircraft at Manston?
What is the tandem-seater jet trainer (by the looks of things) at Manston? Looks like a late 50s design, single-engined, in a non-descript colour scheme.

Operated by TG Aviation which was started by Ted Girdler, ex Red Arrow Pilot who tragically lost his life a few years back at the Eastbourne Air Show, when the L-39 (??) he was fling crashed into the sea. The outfit is now run by his son Mark.
