The photograph of TX161 after it had overshot landing at Northolt on 10 August 1954. At the time of its mishap, it belonged to the Home Command Communications Squadron and appears to be in the course of dismantling to enable the wreckage to be hauled off to the scrap heap.

A sequence of shots of a Scimitar doing trials of an arrester system. The photographs come from Dunlop Aviation Division by courtesy of Colin Read but there seems to be some doubt about the circumstances.
The captions connect the series with the demonstration of arrester gear at the 1961 Farnborough display but the aircraft would appear to be the N.113 prototype WT854.
Although it originally carried a pointed nose with a yaw meter, WT854 later acquired a snub fairing when the probe was removed. It was engaged in arrester gear tests at the Royal Aircraft Establishment at Bedford in the first three months of 1956 and the background suggests that it was during these that the aircraft was photographed. In April 1956, WT854 carried out deck-landing trials aboard 'Ark Royal'.

From the first page of the XA-XZ register that appeared in AM.4/83, Marathon XA271 is shown after the bits of wreckage had been collected for AIB investigation. It transpired that the wing had failed and detached itself from the aircraft, causing it to dive into the ground 1 1/2 miles SSE of Caine, Wilts on 30 September 1954.
