Swift
I think as there are only five complete airframe’s left then yes it’s got to be worth saving at the right price of course.

(This airframe is the only complete reminder of the pure fighter type Swift which was from that righ risk era when both aircraft companies and the services were grappling with high-speed aeronautics, the type provided the first RAF experience of Swept-wings, reheat, and all flying tails,)
Are you sure about that I always thought that honour went to the F-86,
I didn’t think the RAF ever used the reheat version and I dont think it had an all flying tail either, but I’m probably wrong again:D
Can anybody ID the serial of this aircraft, pic was taken at Finningley.

This one was taken at Binbrook it came out of a box of slides given to me, so photographer is unknown.

Every bomber needs a good Bombsight.
People
Long camera exposure and everyone else is moving so fast they do not appear on the film?

Looking at that I found this, never seen it before:eek:
Reds
A few more, plus a couple taken with a polarizer.





light
If we had the right equipment we could reach it within our lifespan. (Time dilation).
Say a 60 year lifespan, a hundred light years every ten years=10 times the speed of light, that got to be some real serious equipment seeing as our fastest spacecraft only do about 1% the speed of light, but who knows were
we will be in a couple of thousand years

test
I thought Operation Ruby was a test of Tall Boy and Grandslam on reinforced targets after the war was over?
Tested on sub/pens near Kiel in 1946. I wonder if thats the mix up with dates?
