On 19th January 1953 the pilot of this No.205 Adavnced Flying School aircraft pulled the aircraft out of a dive at excessive speed, this caused the skin to wrinkle through excessive G forces on the aircraft. The pilot went on to land normally, probably back at the regular base of Middleton St.George but the unit was using Neasham (Croft) airfield as well. A Cat.3R damage assessment was initially made but this was later upgraded to Re.Cat.5(c) on 9th March 1953 which saw it being struck off charge.
Pilot - Name unknown.
