Is that J22 still around now, I assume it was a flying museum piece when the photo was taken? :biggrin:

Thanks for all the nice comments guys.

Is that J22 still around now, I assume it was a flying museum piece when the photo was taken?


The J22 is now preserved at the F10 museum at Ängelholm, and still run occasionally on the taxi tracks at the base (as it also was when the photo was taken).
