Anyone got any photos of the restoration at Skysport? Are there any photos of the finished restoration outside?

But for a badly executed low-level loop that would probably have ended up at Old Warden, as did the other Historics from Hawkers, Gloster etc.:(
I do not think you can entirely blame the pilot, although he may have not allowed any contingency for something going wrong. I seem to remember the engine lost power at the crucial moment due to an ignition defect.

Was that the last flying Jupiter engine ?

Willip26 has asked me to post this picture which he took at the Farnborough Air Show in September 1964, the day before its catastrophic accident there, which has grounded it ever since.

From time to time on ebay there is a CD available with shots of the a/c outside post restoration, good closeups, on the grass. I have looked at the CD I have but no contact details on it, so can’t give you any more than that. Called “Aero detail series Bristol Bulldog”
Found a copy of this, but still would like as many photos as possible please
