No that was XL502, Seafuryfan, and is now at Elvington. XL500 is ex Dowtys – RNAS Culdrose – Chatham.
Both of which are the AEW.3 version.

XL500 is being restored to repel the ground at St Athan!

The Neil Moffat flown aircraft, Oxcart?

Nice movie thanks for sharing.
Is there any chance we will see an airworthy Gannet in the UK at some point?

What a lovely sight, shame about the music though.
It’s easy to forget quite how big an aircraft the Gannet is.
