Hunter at Kirkstead, Lincs

Post by GOOSE » Sun Nov 28, 2010 9:01 pm

Noted a Hunter just South of Woodhall Spa last weekend.

Demobbed has it listed as XL578, but apparently it wears 'XG290'?

Neither confirmed as I shot past at speed. If I get chance I'll pop back for a better look soon.

Goose

It is XL578 which was Delta Jets old spares ship with the rear fuselage off XG290 which was originally the Jet Heritage spares ship which went to Delta Jets eventually.

Reported to be at Binbrook near the Sea Harrier and Lightning in a much more secure location than by the roadside.

A mate bought it about a month ago. Twitter news is @Hunter XL578.

I will forward this page to see if he wants to give more details.

Neil.
