Have any of you got any photographs of these aircraft which were built at Ashford in the late 70s. They were a canard aircraft and the Rattler mounted a Gatling Gun which must have been an interesting lesson in aerodynamics !! Can anybody confirm that the example at the Newark Museum is on public view? Any information would be very welcome.

Newarks Rattler P3
The Rattler is in the workshop next to the Vulcan. It is not normally accessible to the general public unless they are on guided tours such as the enthusiast days, however when the weather is good you can often see it from the open doors.
