I’ve noticed the BAC 1-11 mentioned a few times here. I am an aircraft mechanic and have worked on some nice stuff. I presently work on three of the four remaining flying BAC 1-11’s in the UK (one is about to be retired) and have to say that they really are nice aircraft. Much better than the boeing rubbish that I’ve worked on! (I really dislike the 727, it’s a horrible piece of engineering)

I’ve also completed a course on the VC10 Propulsion and systems.

But my favourite is still my first charge, the old D.H. Comet 4c ‘Canopus’ as seen on my website (link in sig).

I would love to have a big in depth look around the Cosford Comet to see how the design differed and developed with the later 4 series.:)

Oh, and have a good nose around the TSR2 aswell for good measure!:D

Smiler.
