Seeking operational Supermarine Attacker pics

It could’ve been the Sheppard’s Swift, but on a farm not too far away there’s also a private collection that includes a Hawker SeaHawk-a straight wing jet fighter in Navy colours that might be mistaken for an Attacker.

Much more likely to have been the Swift at Upper Hill – there is only one Attacker left, and it’s at Yeovilton.

Unless the rumours of one or two in Pakistan are true…

thanks for that, i was thinking after i wrote it was it a swift or an attacker…..looks like it was the swift.

slightly off topic…….back in the late 80’s i had a back seat jolly in a tornado, and on our way back from wales after a bit of low level, and buzzing of my parents home, the pilot pointed out an attacker in a back garden in the midlands. it was quite near a low level flying corridor, and most of the pilots used it as a landmark.

it definately wasn’t a museum, and i was just wondering if anyone had any info on it.

A drawing I produced many years ago may be a help to you.

More!!

A few more of the Model if it help mate!

Ciao, Bye! and see ya all next year sometime?

Long live the D.B. 109, and may many more be rebuilt just yet, may just get rid of more of those Ugly Buchon’s yet!(Daz)

So I try and have an almost A/Z selection, so I now have about 50 deck top disk’s made up.

I had a bit of a thing for the Attacker for a while(not sure why, but it happen’s now and then with different type’s, so I had got the few I could find of her for interesting D.T.’s.

Grabbed some model stuff off the net if it help’s ya oneOnine mate!

Now I must have a lay down, been out for a sec and it’s getting bloody HOT here in Oz.
