Vampire FB.5 VZ150 (probably) at Leconfield airfield.

The Central Gunnery School record book (AIR29/2314) gives very basic information that on 19th March 1951 this aircraft received damage. Given the unit was based at Leconfield it probably occurred there.

This may be the incident that saw a Cat.3R damage assessment was made and a repair on site at Leconfield by 60 M.U. with it servicable in February 1952.

Pilot - Name unknown.
