Initially allocated British military serial XN734 and was used by Rolls Royce for engine development in the early sixties, later allocated the maintenance number 8346M for ground instruction with the RAF. British Aircraft Corporation used the 'Class B’ registration G-27-239 with its Saudi Support Unit. It was purchased by Aces High in 1986 and allocated the civilian registration G-BNCA. Scrapped at Cranfield in December 1994.
