I flew in the right and seat of this aircraft at Wattisham in May 1972 whilst on 29 Sqdn serving as a J/T engine fitter. During the flight the No 1 engine nozzle positon indicator failed and I had the job of rectifing it after the flight.
During the flight we reached mach 0.94. The pilot was F/O Champion - this was a very impresive flight particuarlary to take-off and landing - fast!!!!
