Sirs, I bought this aircraft from the MoD in the 1970s and trucked it to Manston,Kent where I stored it for several years until the early 1980s when I shipped it to the British Virgin Islands. I did the necessary work myself as a licenced Aircraft Maintenance engineer and carried out the test flights from Beef Island Airport, B.V.I. I then delivered it to San Juan International Airport, Puerto Rico until it was sold by me to an expatriate Englishman living in Texas, USA.

Originally built for RAF service as WV666: Struck off charge as 7926M on 01/11/1966. Later sold to US owner as N2416R. To UK civil register as G-BTDH on 14/08/1996. Registration G-BTDH cancelled 07/02/2000 as "aircraft destroyed".
Despite this, sold to a new owner in Albany, New Zealand, and civil registered as ZK-JOT, then rebuilt/restored to airworthy condition by March 2005
