Moment of Truth by Robert Tomlin.

To celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the first flight of the DH110, this special edition of 500 copies has been taken from Robert Tomlins original oil painting. It depicts Sea Vixen XP924 of 899 Squadron as it is hurled from the waist catapult of HMS Eagle during the aircrafts last deployment in 1969. Following retirement from 899 Squadron the aircraft went on to serve with Flight Refuelling Ltd before being finally transferred to RAF Llanbedr for target towing duties. In 1996 it was purchased by de Havilland Aviation Ltd and placed on the civil register as G-CV1X. Still in flying condition, the aircraft now forms a core part of the de Havilland Aviation Ltd collection of historic aircraft and is regularly displayed at air shows in the hands of current pilot Dan Griffiths.
