XH648 / 57 (cn HP80/48) The last ever flight for this Victor was her flight to Duxford on 2-Jun-1976. She had to be delivered that week because once work started on the M11 motorway, the huge temporary embankment to be constructed on the runway undershoot would effectively knock 2,000 feet off the available length and render it unusable for Victors. That last flight from RAF Marham was a mere 30 miles - she only reached an altitude of 1000 feet! |
