Supermarine Attacker

Looking for anyone who flew the Attacker during it's Royal Navy service. This is the final type outstanding in my search for people who flew all the FAA fixed-wing types post-war for a new series of books.
Thanks in anticipation!

Never flew one, but 64 years ago took this photo of WP282 (from RNAS Ford I think) at 1954 ROC "Recognition Day" at Biggin Hill.

What a strange looking aeroplane! A straight wing tailwheel jet fighter? And people call this the golden age of British aviation when we led the world...
