Narrative:
Ex-N4115B. Written off (damaged beyond repair) when destroyed by fire in a hangar fire at Fairoaks Airport, Chobham, Surrey on 19/8/1969.

The remains of G-ARJJ were broken up at Biggin Hill. I remember coming across one of the wings in the grass on the east side of the aerodrome in the late 1960s. Photo below would have been taken between 1966 and 1969.
