The advantage with moving house is that you get to find all sorts of stuff. These pics are a bit old, but still good.

Blame it on the Boddingtons… 😉

Nine cylinders? Pah!
Cas, I presume you’re referring to a pair of Mercury’s? Tut, tut, if you REALLY want to have the ultimate British radial twin, I think you need a bigger pair of Bristols mate. Try a pair of 14 cylinder Hercs, as bolted on to one of these… 😉

Proper aeroplanes have Avon engines and were designed by Hawker. Best known as THE HUNTER.

Well, maybe if it had two more Merlins and a bit less woodworm…;)

Superb photographs. Great aeroplane. Agree totally with SE5AFAN.

Oh, sorry, I saw the heading ‘a proper aeroplane’ and came in looking for Lancs. I’ll be off again now, bye!!! :p

Great pictures Yak 11 Fan. I think it is a pity the Yak 11’s don’t get more airshow bookings as they deserve to.
Wouldn’t it be great to see a couple in formation with the Lavochkin at Legends?

It is an accepted fact in this household that all proper aeroplanes were built or designed at Hatfield.
