Two of the four Strikemasters of Team Viper depart Exeter bound for the Biggin Hill International Air Fair. G-UVNR was built in 1971 for the Kenya Air Force as '605'. After nearly twenty years in KAF service she was sold, along with five other Strikemasters, to the Botswana Defence Force where she became 'OJ10'. She remained in service until early 1997 and was then acquired by Global Aviation at Binbrook who put her on the UK register as G-BXFS. The number 2 Strikemaster in this formation is G-VPER. She is a Mk80A variant and was built in 1976 for the Royal Saudi Air Force as '1130'.
