I think the official date was in 1974.

Agreed
CF : 1929 – 1974

This is a photo taken July 1974 – my earliest C-registered aircraft photo

Just came across the 1961 F84F Thunderstreak on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1961_F-84_Thunderstreak_incident
Does anyone know if any photographs survive of the recovered aircraft or know what happened to them?
An interesting story! And a shame that none survive in an airworthy state!

“In an exhibition at the Luftwaffenmuseum Berlin-Gatow in 2006 („50 Jahre Luftwaffe“ 15.09.2006-31.08.2007), pictures of the two buried and then rediscovered Thunderstreaks at Tegel were shown, finally clearing up the question of what became of the two planes.”

Thanks everyone. Yes Snipe and Brooklands makes sense.
The reg is E ?629 and Snipes range from E6137 to E6686.

…and E7337 to E7836

A bit hard to read, but could the serial be E629? If it is, it should narrow things down a bit.

E629 Airco D.H.9 looks different
