I really need to go back there.
Well they had some nice (if brief) footage of the Hawker Hunter prototype and the red one which broke the sound barrier.
I perfer to see her in a polished metal finish, i’m getting tired of Sally B being in the same scheme for the past twenty odd years.
Even putting her back into her 1988 colours would be nice.
Thank you for the information.

Sorry! About the name thing. I work with a team of volunteers and were restoring the JP to static condition.
I don’t have any information on the aircraft other than its serial number and its a T.4. We’ve been working on her for about two years now.
And a Happy New Year to you too!
Got to agree those were better days and the people a lot more relaxed and friendlier.Like the J.P avatar is it a favourite aircraft or did you work on them?.John.B
