This photo makes me a bit curious, it appears that there are a few bits n
pieces missing from the Meteor.
Like the canopy, parts from around the air inlet on the engines and it
seems
to be settled into the ground a fair ways too.
Is there any further information on this photo?


It has a Maintenance Serial which means it's non-flying and used for
instructional purposes. In other words, when it's not being neglected,
it's
being abused.


Thanks for the info........ now it all makes sense.
