WA829 "ABLE" was allocated to me on 255 Squadron. For some unknown reason Tangmere removed the Flight Refuelling probe and the 245 Sqn markings, blue & yellow checkerboard. This aircraft was used on the viability trials for FR in 1950, quite historic

Displayed as WA829, this is substantially Meteor WA984 with many parts from VZ530.
