Following completion of the flight and the safe recovery of the aircraft life could get back to normal As the Gloster Meteor entered RAF service it was originally charged with destroying the V-1 flying bombs that were being sent indiscriminately in the direction of southern Britain The first Meteor victory over a Doodlebug occurred on the 4th August 1944 when Flying Officer TD &8216;Dixie&8217; Dean spotted a V-1 flying in the direction of Tunbridge Wells Placing his Meteor EE216 in a shallow dive to build up speed he lined up the V-1 in his gunsight and fired &8211; after a short burst all four guns jammed Dean was determined not to let the Doodlebug get away and manoeuvred his Meteor alongside the flying bomb wing tip to wing tip When he was positioned as close as he safely could he flicked the control column of his Meteor and banked sharply away &8211; the sudden airflow disruption caused the V-1 to go out of control and crash without causing injury on open ground Dean had the first Meteor victory over the V-1 and was the first pilot to use the risky &8216;tip and run&8217; tactic to destroy one these feared flying bombs Dimensions22 x 76 x 222Scale172Limited EditionYesLimited Edition Size1500Wingspan180mmAge Suitability14"
