Here are some pics of the ex-FRADU Hunter GA11 which now sits on a pole at former RNAS Ford. It has been there a few years now, and was getting a little tatty. Happily it has just had a new coat of paint, and now looks very smart! More about the history of this aircraft here:

According to this site, it should be ‘833’ 🙂

Yep it should be 833 but it also shouldn’t have the DD on the tail 😀
Interestingly this jet was painted all battleship grey during its latter career with the FRADU. Then after it went to Culdrose for use with the Dummy Deck school, it was re-sprayed grey and white again. 🙂
Must go down and see WW654 sometime.
