Gannet T2 XA515

Can anyone confirm this aircraft served with 815 Squadron. If so, does anyone know the side code/base code used (Presumably GN as based as Eglinton), or even better, have a picture of her in service?

I know she later served with the ETPS, but Air Britain Squadrons of the FAA lists her as with 815 for a short time.

According to British Military Aircraft serials and histories XA515 served with 815 Sqn being delivered 5-’55. Unfortunately there are no other details apart from being transfered to ETPS. The only photo is of the a/c presumably after it was SOC.

A-B’s massive “FAA Fixed Wing Aircraft Since 1946” which gives a detailed history of all airframes makes no reference to this example serving with any Sqdn.
