C/n 06022 ex XM823, G-APAS, G-5-23, F-BGNZ. One of the first Comets for Air France, grounded after the loss of G-ALYP. After use for research work for various organisations (including A&AEE and Hawker Siddeley) it was transferred to the RAF Museum in 1968 and stored at Shawbury as 8351M until it was moved to Cosford, painted in BOAC colours, in September 1978. Following a change of policy at the RAF Museum Cosford, the fuselage was moved to St Athan, arriving 10 September 2025, for exhibition with South Wales Aviation Museum.
c/n 06022
Built 1953 and delivered to Air France as F-BGNZ. Withdrawn from service in January 1954 following the loss of BOAC Comet G-ALYP and the temporary grounding of all BOAC Comets. Returned to de Havilland for modifications but the loss of G-ALYY in April caused all Comet flying to cease. Converted to 1XB standard at Chester and flew again as such in November 1957, registered as G-APAS. Used for trials work on infra-red guidance equipment, she was given the military serial XM823 in February 1958.
Retired in 1967, she joined the RAF Museum collection in 1968 and was stored at Shawbury until moving to Cosford in 1978 painted in BOAC colours to fit in with the British Airways Collection.
She is now on display in Hangar 1 at the RAF Museum Cosford, Shropshire, UK.
