VT935 as the P.111a, in an overall yellow colour scheme with a black cheatline running from the intake to the mid-span wing leading edge. By this time it had a set of four airbrakes fitted to reduce its fearsome landing speed.

VT951, the P.120, was designed to investigate the interaction between a delta wing and a horizontal tailplane. It was painted in the colours seen here - gloss black with a yellow cheatline - in order to steal the 1952 Farnborough Show limelight from Avro’s blue and vermilion pair of 707 research deltas.

View of the P.111 prototype VT935, which made its maiden flight in the hands of Boulton Paul chief test pilot A. E. "Benn" Gunn at A&AEE Boscombe Down on October 10, 1950. The characteristic nose-up ground attitude of the aircraft is apparent in this picture, as is the tall pointed fin - the extreme tip of which was designed to be removable for inflight comparison of sharp and blunt tip profiles.
