EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Gloster Javelin T.3 XK577 in all its glory, showcasing the sleek and powerful design of this iconic aircraft. Formerly operated by the Aeroplane & Armament Experimental Establishment at Boscombe Down, this particular Javelin found itself at the Ministry of Aviation Fire School at Stansted Airport in April 1965.
Little did anyone know that just a year later, in October 1966, XK577 would meet a fiery end during fire-fighting practice. The flames engulfed the once majestic aircraft, bringing an abrupt and tragic conclusion to its service life.
Despite its ultimate fate, this image serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery and skill of those who flew and maintained these remarkable machines. The Javelin was a true marvel of engineering, pushing boundaries in both flight performance and aeronautical technology.
As we gaze upon this photograph from The Peter Butt Aviation Collection, we are transported back to a time when aviation was still filled with wonder and excitement. XK577 may have been lost to us physically, but its spirit lives on through images like these that capture its essence for future generations to admire and appreciate.
