Bob Funnell, 2009-01-12 00:00:00 First Reg: WW 397 flew in Royal Air Force until 1969. Transferred to No 1 School of Technical Training, RAF Halton as an instructional airframe reg: 8060M. Transferred to RAF Lyneham 1978/9? for rebuild to flying condition. Transferred to civilian Reg 1983 as G-BKHP (but still carried RAF Reg WW 397).
