These walk-around photos were taken at Västerås Flygmuseum in 2017. They show a Hawker Hunter T.7A, RAF serial XL616, civil registration SE-DXH — one of the two-seat trainer variants of what many regard as the finest British fighter aircraft of the 1950s. The Hunter was universally praised for its beautifully proportioned swept-wing design, responsive handling and the punch of its four 30mm Aden cannon, and the T.7 gave its qualities to a second occupant by extending the forward fuselage to accommodate side-by-side seating for instructor and student. Sweden ordered 120 Hunter Mk 50s for the Flygvapnet as the J 34, but this particular aircraft never wore Swedish colours — it was a British machine that found its way to Västerås through the civilian market. XL616 made its first flight in January 1959 and served with the Royal Air Force until 1985, when it was retired to RAF Cosford as instructional airframe 9223M. In 1995 it was sold to Lansen Ltd, given the registration G-BWIE and transported to Sweden, where it was re-registered SE-DXH and operated briefly by Avancerad Flygträning. When its airworthiness certificate lapsed it went on display at Västerås Flygmuseum, where it remained until 2020 when it was acquired by the International Test Pilots School in London, Ontario, Canada.
