Many people will be familiar with this Hunter and that it has been a roof-top display, on and off, over the last 30 years or so on the Vanguard building on the Western Avenue at Greenford.

Vanguard have a new building under construction at Staples Corner on the North Circular Road, WT555 has been restored to its original scheme and will be on permanent display inside the new building and it will be clearly visible from the carriageway.

Construction will be complete in the autumn and at which point WT555 will be a very prominent and permanent exhibit.

Details of the restoration are here:

Also coming soon, a new roof-top exhibit for the Vanguard building on Western Avenue.
