Gnat XR992 also has a civilian registration G-MOUR. It has been repainted into the Yellowjacks aerobatic team
colour scheme in order to look more authentic, XR992 was one of the founding Yellowjacks airframes.
It was accepted into RAF service on 8th October 1964 and was allocated the serial number XS102,
serving at RAF Valley with No 4 Flying Training School (FTS).
The aircraft is now owned and operated by The Heritage Aircraft Trust which is dedicated to the
restoration and conservation of classic historic aircraft. It is now one of three
Folland Gnat T.MK1's operated by the Trust.
I'd like to thank everyone on the team for such great access to XR992.
Also photographed on the day was De Havilland DH.112 Venom FB50 WR470 which had a couple of
ground runs during my visit.
