It is a shell, nothing in the cockpit, engine out and all the electronics.
It is little more than scrap value.
XX306 was made at the then British Aerospace plant at Dunsfold and handed over to the Royal Air Force on May 23, 1980.
Painted in the Red Arrows’ famous livery, the aircraft also featured a smoke and dye pod – a modification on the standard Hawk.
The jet spent two months at RAF Valley before flying to RAF Kemble – the Red Arrows’ previous home – and joined the Squadron on July 3, 1980.
It was retired from the aerobatic team on October 20, 2012, having last been used in a display on September 26 and then flown to RAF Shawbury for decommissioning and preparation as a Gate Guardian.
Total flying time for XX306 - 7,378 hours and 15 minutes, so it is fatigue life expired.
