Built as a B35 and converted to TT35 in 1953. It was operated first by 4 CAACU and then by 3 CAACU at Exeter from 30 June 1954 until it was retired in the early 1960s. It was used in the film 633 Squadron with the civil registration G-ASKC, and was later acquired by the Skyfame Museum at Staverton. It moved to the IWM at Duxford in 1978 and has been restored as a target tug, and is displayed in the Airspace hangar. The date of the photo is a guess.
