Flagship of the Delta Jets fleet is Hawker Hunter WV318 / G-FFOX. Originally built as a single seat F4 at Kingston, 318 served with 14 Squadron at Oldenburg and then 93 Squadron at Jever. Converted to a T7 in the early '60s, the a/c was upgraded to a T7A in 1964 by having OR946 instrumentation fitted to the left hand panel. it was then issued to 74Sqdn, operating the Lightning F3.
During 1970 the a/c joined the Buccaneer force, being one of the last four Hunters to serve with the R.A.F.
Purchased in 1996 by Delta Jets, she wears the colours and markings of a III Sqdn a/c.
