My ugly mug attatched to a pint.

Looking through the Putnam British Civil, etc. last night and it said there was only one York left, at Skyfame. Which one didn’t he know about? Or, where was it hiding?

Kev, I think you’ve just stitched yoursel up.:)

What accentuates the size to me is the relative size of the cockpit canopy to the rest of the airframe. Almost looks like one of those scaled down “replicas”.

How come I can put cockpit but not D1ck?

Wombat, I think you’re right about the P1110. I did remember the number for a month or so, but it’s gone now. Old age, I suspect.

Re the 1000km/h plan. IIRC, a Meatbox took the world speed record at 616mph, which is just short of 990km/h. I’m sure it was a later Meteor, but it still wasn’t much more aerodynamic than a barn door. I think with decent engines, or better materials, the 262 is likely to have beaten that.

Bunch of smart-****. 🙂

If they’d been efficient, we wouldn’t be having this discussion today.

Just had a quick glance at Luft46 and can’t see either of them.

We weren’t dreaming, Steve, were we?

I gather listed building demolition (unless Grade 1) depends on who you know. There’s a Grade 2 listed building, an old manor, about to be demolished in Chesterfield.
Backhanders and devious behaviour would be illegal of course.
