Please don't burn it just look after it, it's such a great aircraft.
Looking at the dirty circle on the badge picture I think it was once a 6 Sqn machine.

I know the man who bought it and the plan is not to burn it. It's to be used for weapon training and how do deal with canopies and things like that. All sort of engineering reasons aswell.
