Summary

Description

de Havilland dH-110 Sea Vixen D3, formerly of the Royal Navy as XP924, now on the UK Civil Register as G-CVIX, is maintained by De Havilland Aviation Ltd. at Bournemouth Airport, Dorset, England. The aircraft is seen here in its former Red Bull advertising markings, although it has now been repainted in its former Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm markings. XP924 entered service with the Royal Navy in 1964 as an FAW.2 model. It ended its flying in 1991 as a trainer for teaching pilots to fly aircraft by remote control from the ground (for use as missile targets).
(Note: the slightly unreal look of this pic arises from the white cloud background. This is not a model nor have I cut it out and put it on a white background)
