Painted as Meteor NF.11 WD615, this is really WD646. Built in 1951 and originally served with 85 Squadron. Later preserved by the Sheldon ATC in Birmingham. Moved to North Weald in 1991 in an attempt to restore her to flying condition. That project failed and she has been preserved at the RAF Manston History Museum since 1996.
