Following retirement from the Royal Air Force, this Swift F.7 served for many years as an instructional airframe at Kelsterton College of Technology at Connah’s Quay, Flintshire, North Wales.
The aircraft was restored to flying condition in 1989 by Jet Heritage Limited of Hurn and registered as G-SWIF.
