Our Slingsby T61F Venture T Mk 2 was formerly operated by the RAF Air Cadets in the 1980’s. Delivered to RAF in May 1980, she carried the registration ZA634 and the tail code C for Charlie. A two seat motor glider, many young cadets gained their first solo flight experience in this aircraft. She was demobbed in the the early 90’s and passed into private ownership and registered as G –BUHA. Today
she resides at Saltby Airfield the home of Buckminster Gliding Club and is the prize possession of the Saltby flying group. As of December 2014 she is one of two Ventures that retains her original livery and markings. ZA634 has made regular appearances at the RAF Waddington International Airshow, RIAT and VGS events around the country, 2013 also marked her debut appearance at the RAF Cosford Airshow. Please let us know if you would be interested in ZA634 attending your aviation event, or you simply want to come and see how the old girl is doing.
